Paroles de Photographs

Life goes by so fast
Just like these photographs
And albums lying on
The floor next to you.
Who were we yesterday
And who are we tomorrow
Just a collage of memories-
Pictures of you and me.

If we develop all the negatives,
Can we piece together all the substance-
Of years in our hearts.

People we once knew
Separated by miles
But you're close enough to touch
Here on the black and white.
Smiles caught on a page
Captured in still life
Forced inside wooden frames -
Just like these photographs.

And if we develop all the negatives
Can we piece together all the substance-
Of years in our hearts.

Life goes by so fast,
Just like these photographs.
