the cure - pictures of you
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

Those are the most beautiful words in this song, and I wait patiently for them to arrive. Everytime. So cool to see you typing those words. Ditto kleefton

Enough said. Great song.

February 27th, 2009 at 11:13This song is a happy one, for me atleast. Because it was mine in a time of despair, but I feel fixed, now and can look at my experience more positively. It’s beautiful.
February 28th, 2009 at 14:55Aw man, sorry about that…well it sorta difficult to find any right words in 60 seconds cause I dont know ya or her…but only to say it’ll get better…and you might get back…and if u dont…it will be for the best…and you’ll meet someone fabulous that u will be real happy with..and all of this will make sense later on..and you’ll be glad that all of this happened…

Smith… you are the master!!!
I remember my friend Ana Lilia with this song… she died 5 years ago.
