Picture of the Past

I wish I could put myself in a picture from the past so life would never end 
and days will always last. I wish I could put myself in a picture from the 
past to relive each day like it was my last. I wish I could put myself in a 
picture from the past to recapture all the time that has past. I wish I could 
put myself in a picture from the past to get back all the dreams I use to 
have. I wish I could put myself in a picture from the past to be there with 
you to smile and laugh to hold you and never lose the things I had. I wish 
I could put myself in a picture from the past I'd stay there and never 
look back. I wish I could put myself in a picture from the past make time 
stand still just to get you back. I wish I could put myself in a picture from 
the past so these tears I cry now will be my last. I wish I could put myself 
in a picture from the past to be with you everyday till it was my last. I wish 
I could put myself in a picture from the past so everyday my heart would 
feel no pain at last. I wish I could put my self in a picture from the past 
cause my time with you would never be my last in pictures time don't run 
out like sands in an hour glass. Time stands still, it always lasts when 
your in a picture from the past. Nothing can take away what you have. 
Your happiness always will last. Cause pictures never fade they always last.
