Lyrics
The Picture © January 13, 2007 Stan Loh Verse 1 Your picture hangs on the wall, In the shrine in the hall, Each day your smile says you loved me. Verse 2 My only grace is memories, All I owned were stripped from me, When flames raced through the dreams we built, Sub-Verse 1 Now all is left is a charm bracelet, And a smoked-damaged picture of you. Verse 3 I kiss your lips and grieve, Twenty years, still no relief, Time tells me you’re irreplaceable. Sub-Verse 2 No, I can’t forget the love we shared, There’s nothin’ that can compare. Chorus Why can’t I get to heaven to be with you? Why can’t I get to heaven it’s long overdue, If I ever make it there, up the long flight of stairs. Will your arms be waitin’ there for me? Interlude Verse 4 More precious than anything, Is your picture, the only link, To a love now in heaven above Verse 5 When I go I wont forget, No matter what the etiquette, That photograph will come along when I leave, Sub-Verse 3 But for now your smile, is my reconcile, My treasure, the picture of you. Repeat Chorus
