PICTURES OF YOU, The Cure


I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
that I almost believe that they're real 
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
that I almost believe that the pictures are 
all I can feel
Remembering 
you standing quiet in the rain 
as I ran to your heart to be near 
and we kissed as the sky fell in
holding you close 
how i always held close in your fear
remembering 
you running soft through the night 
you were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
and screamed at the make-believe 
screamed at the sky
and you finally found all your courage 
to let it all go
Remembering 
you fallen into my arms 
crying for the death of your heart 
you were stone white
so delicate 
lost in the cold 
you were always so lost in the dark
remembering 
you how you used to be 
slow drowned 
you were angels
so much more than everything 
hold for the last time then slip away quietly 
open my eyes 
but I never see anything
If only I’d thought of the right words 
I could have held on to your heart 
if only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart 
all my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of you 
but I never hold on to your heart 
looking so long for the words to be true
but always just breaking apart
my pictures of you
There was nothing in the world
that I ever wanted more 
than to feel you deep in my heart
there was nothing in the world 
that I ever wanted more
than to never feel the breaking apart
all my pictures of you
