When the Pictures Stop
Each one holds a bittersweet memory
Of a beautiful part of my past
Who'd of thought when those pictures all came down
That those framed in emotions would last
When the pictures stopped
My world fell apart
Each uncaptured emotion....runs cold
I guess I'll find out in time
If the fault was all mine
And those pictures
Are a part of my soul
I shutter to think all that we've missed
Are you picturing somebody new
I'm sure you'll fade in time
But for now your still mine
So cut me out
And I'll know that we're through
When the pictures stopped
My world fell apart
Each uncaptured emotion...ran cold
Now I'm finding out with time
That the fault wasn't mine
But those pictures
Remain in my soul
The dust outlines the heartache
Where those love filled pictures once stood
Each memory a flash
Of times we can't get back
Yet those pictures
Remain in my soul
When the pictures stop.....
