In the Pages of a Magazine by Tammy Jann 2020 Took an old box of garbage she found on the street filled with someone's travel magazines at home she dragged it across the floor stuffed it in the closet and shut the door One day she opened the box and took a look she fell in love with the photos in the book she tore out pages of places she'd never been and taped them on the wall to take them in Chorus The orange of the sunsets the blue of the sea places she can't imagine in the pages of a magazine if life had been different maybe she could be off to one of those places in the pages of a magazine in the pages of a magazine Over the years the pictures faded and tore just like her dreams they hung tattered and worn she would touch each photo's sunset and sand and knew her wanderlust was grand One day a man tossed flowers on her chair sad that his aunt was no longer there she wasted away staring at photos on the wall trapped in poverty, she went no where at all Chorus The orange of the sunsets the blue of the sea places she can't imagine in the pages of a magazine if life had been different maybe she could be off to one of those places in the pages of a magazine in the pages of a magazine Outro So many places in those magazines so many dreams, she's never seen they're only pages of a magazine
