Pictures From The Past

(album: Now - 1981)

Darling since you left me I'm so sad and blue
And I count my memories one by one with photographs of you
Darling I remember, we were happy then
Oh what I'd give if I could live those moments once again

Pictures from the past bring back a memory
When this love of ours was new and you belonged to me
Each night I sit and cry for a love that couldn't last
'Cause all that I have left of you are pictures from the past

Though you've found a new love, no one can take away
The things we shared together when you loved me yesterday
I can hear you whisper, I can hear you laugh
But I realise, through misty eyes, it's just your photograph

Pictures from the past bring back a memory
When this love of ours was new and you belonged to me
Each night I sit and cry for a love that couldn't last
'Cause all that I have left of you are pictures from the past

Time can move a mountain through the coming years
But time can never take away my precious souvenirs
Though they turn to ashes, though they fall apart
'Till the day I die I know that I will keep them in my heart

Pictures from the past bring back a memory
When this love of ours was new and you belonged to me
Each night I sit and cry for a love that couldn't last
'Cause all that I have left of you are pictures from the past
Each night I sit and cry for a love that couldn't last
'Cause all that I have left of you are pictures from the past
