In a windowed room,
|
where things had gone astray,
|
I aimed my uncovered lens.
|
And captured your stillness,
|
in a frame.
|
And you'll never see your face again.
|
|
I'll add the caption.
|
I'll have you say things you would not.
|
I'll call you captive.
|
I will put words into your mouth.
|
Smile, smile, it's a picture.
|
I don't care if it's awful.
|
Smile, smile, it's a picture.
|
It just lasts forever.
|
|
In a borrowed book,
|
I won't keep you in a frame.
|
¡®Til the day when mistake leads you awry.
|
And some brand new Dan finds your orphaned face,
|
and it's all he'll ever know you by.
