Photographs (How Do I Tell You) Track

We’re all photographs
A still moment in time
You couldn’t make my life more sublime
I’m so glad you are part of this rhyme

I want to tell you this on my behalf
That I’m so lucky you’re my habitat
But I don’t want to wish these words back
So how do I tell you that?

I realize that you’re not around
And I want you right here with me
With what you do, I’m so astound
You’re so beautiful; pretty…
…like lights glistening in the sky’s city

Life’s mission to find the other half
You should know I can’t do it alone
And that you fill what I lack
I can’t do it on my own

I want you to know
That it tears me apart…
…when you leave or when I have to go
And that I’ve loved you from the start
But these emotions I can’t show

I want you in my photograph
On tables in pile that stack
To see you smile and laugh
With you, I realize my life is on track
