Look at me, eighteen and tanned,
|
Behind the wheel of my old van,
|
"Hotel California" turned up loud,
|
No air-conditioning, windows down.
|
Look at you smilin' at me,
|
Don't know when I've been as happy,
|
As that weekend out in Joshua Tree,
|
When I got down on my knees.
|
An' I like lookin' at old photographs.
|
Reminds me of the way we've always made each other laugh.
|
|
Pictures of a life we've made together.
|
Memories of a love that just gets better with time.
|
So many good times,
|
There's no way I will forget.
|
They've got me thinkin' 'bout pictures,
|
We haven't taken yet.
|
|
Next year let's go to Disneyworld,
|
Can't wait to see our little girl,
|
Hold hands with Mickey Mouse,
|
Chocolate ice-cream on her mouth.
|
An' you'll get all upset when I,
|
Snap you comin' off that ride,
|
With that pasty white look...
|
You won't put that one in our book.
|
An' I like lookin' back at all the things we've done.
|
But I love dreamin' of the years yet to come.
|
|
Pictures of a life we've made together,
|
Memories of a love that just gets better with time.
|
So many good times,
|
There's no way I will forget.
|
Not now I'm thinkin' 'bout pictures,
|
We haven't taken yet.
|
|
Someday I'll walk our daughter down the aisle,
|
And every tear and every smile,
|
Will be captured in color.....
|
|
Pictures of a life we've made together,
|
Memories of a love that just gets better with time.
|
So many good times,
|
There's no way I will forget.
|
They got us thinkin' 'bout pictures,
|
We haven't taken yet.
|
|
Can you see us on that front porch swing?
|
All the joy it's gonna bring,
|
To hear our grandkids laugh,
|
As they go thumbin' through our past...
|
|
Pictures.
