A picture on the wall
A photograph in its frame

Youre a picture on my wall
A photograph, in a frame

I see your face
Hear your laugh
Know your name

But
Are you just
A photograph
Of someone come and gone
A photograph
Of a year once upon
A time
A long long time, ago.

I see a picture on the wall
A photograph, in its frame

Am I a photograph?
A picture on your wall
A photograph
In a frame, big or small
A photograph
Of someone you so-called barely know
A photograph
A picture from long ago
A photograph
Like I haven't aged at all
A photograph
Im sorry I wanted it all
A photograph
A photograph
A photograph
Of us

Im not just a photograph
A picture on the wall
You're not just a photograph
Someone who isn't big nor small
We arent a photograph

We live our lives
Walk our streets
Miles and miles and miles
Apart

Washington and L.A.
A photograph
To ease the time spent away
A photograph
Of who we used to be

I miss that photograph
Wish I hadn't been so mean
I miss that photograph
Wish that I had forseen
How much I'd miss you
So do you miss me?
Or, am I just

A photograph
A picture on the wall
A photograph
Of a girl you remember not at all
A photograph
Of a time when all was right
A photograph
Of a time when we did not have to fight
Each time we said hello
So can I say hello
From inside
A photograph
A photograph
A photograph

A picture on the wall
A photograph
A time gone by
A friend cast aside
No wait that was you....
I threw you to the side
And I'm sorry
So can
A photograph
Help us start
Anew?
