Scrapbooking Is For Lovers

In photographs things always stay the way you want them to be
Perfect and still and unchanging and safe
And in this photo you are always smiling at me
Too bad that picture has long been misplaced

But i can still see it when i close my eyes
Imagine you dark hair, your presence, your smile
Look at the way that your love never dies
Inspired by things that i said at the time

Well i turn back the pages and blow of the dust
But i can't find that photograph of your love
I remember it clearly the room was so dark
But you were so bright, you kept me alive
What happen to the love that lived in that picture
I thought it would never fade away
