Your Picture

Every day I wake up to your picture Open up my eyes and there's still you In the very corner I first placed you The very same expression That lights up all of my room Though the colors may be somewhat faded The smile has almost vanished from your face As you disappear I re-invent you From my imagination You'll never be erased There is no way to bargain with the future In the end there are no guarantees.... oh no Even if you're gone I'll always find you Right here where I left you Smiling back at me Every star has a season, a moment, a reason to be We may watch with regret as they flicker then die But at least for one second we bathed in the light of their passing The memory still lasting Through the years and the distance your image remains Like the first day I saw you, you'll never be changed As a token you left me your picture Every day I wake up to your picture I fashion you a different attitude Try to visualize the things you're doing Not in desperation Just to feel a part of you There is no way to bargain with the future What we have in store we can't foresee... oh no Even if you're gone I'll always find you Right here where I left you Smiling back at me … Every star has a season, a moment, a reason to be We may watch with regret as they flicker then die But at least for one second we bathed in the light of their passing The memory still lasting Through the years and the distance your image remains Like the first day I saw you, you'll never be changed As a token you left me your picture Smiling back at me
