Leave My Picture Standing
(A reminder of what was)
Leave my picture standing
A memento of what once was,
A time of love and caring
A reminder of what once was.
Sometimes it's easy to forget
What we once had.
The world can be full of regret
And sometimes downright sad.
Too often, we get swept away
And forget the things we once had.
Sometimes you need a few years
To realise what it was you had.
And when the feeling disappears
But you feel lonely and sad,
Gaze upon that photo there,
What we had was not that bad.
We were building a life together
Then things started to fall apart.
Said we would be in love forever
You will always have my heart.
So gaze upon that picture,
Maybe there is still a spark.
So, leave my picture standing
A memento of what once was,
A time of love and caring
And remember what once was.
Till next time,
Calvin
