Pictures of You

I have always loved "The Cure".  The song Pictures of You came on recently...I thought it was appropriate for the "Picture on my nightstand" blog...well most of the song at least.

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 whiter than snow
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 so drowned you were
Angels so much more than everything
oh hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes but i never see anything

If only I had thought of the right words 
I couldhave 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
My pictures of you
