Pictures

Lyrics

[Intro] Mafia [Verse 1] I stack these magazines in the corner After I'm done with them And I still got the same hope that I started with That you'll be in one of them My camera shed some tears since you left him With nothing, with nothing [Pre-Chorus] How am I supposed to remember? Woah I got the memories but the memories fade, baby What am I gonna show to my kids, girl? Ooh-woah-woah When I'm older, and my mind is telling me to forget you What's gonna make me remember? [Chorus] That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures 'Cause I didn't wanna miss a thing, miss a thing Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures When you knew they were all that I had left - nothing left They were part of our history, this story I was always taking pictures 'Cause I didn't wanna miss you so bad, miss you this bad Miss you so bad, miss you so... [Verse 2] We didn't make love, we celebrated its invention Confetti on the mattress, I used to have those images Tonight I came home they were just embers in the fire With my hard drive, almost no goodbyes [Pre-Chorus] How the hell am I supposed to remember? Uh Tell me now, the memories, the memories fade, baby What am I gonna show to my kids, girl? Woah, na, na When I'm older, and my mind's telling me to forget you What's gonna make me remember? [Chorus] That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures 'Cause I didn't wanna miss a thing, miss a thing Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures When you knew they were all that I had left – nothing left They were part of our history, this story I was always taking pictures 'Cause I didn't wanna miss you [Bridge] No video, no polaroids, yeah No record of the love we had, yeah My Nikon wasn't fast enough To catch my heart break in half No smiles on my picture frames, no Just got them little basic ones that the pictures frames come with Models, wedding pictures, you know, oh [Chorus] That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures 'Cause I didn't wanna miss a thing, miss a thing Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures? When you knew they were all that I had left – nothing left They were part of our history, this story I was always taking pictures 'Cause I didn't wanna miss you so bad, miss you this bad Miss you so bad, miss you so
