Lyrics
The album lies in silent afternoons
The pages flutter, days caress the memory
It isn't a rainy fantasy, I saw it once, I know
Each pose contrived so natural in passing
And when the scenes grow hazy
My imagination's lazy
I save myself the time by looking at
Photographs, reminders of forgotten scenes
Photographs, images of yesterday
Photographs, autographs of time
The green of spring that opens weary eyes
Left as a feeling mellows to a constant rhyme
The scenes are taken far away and frozen on a photograph
A running child, immobile for all time
And when the scenes grow hazy
My imagination's lazy
I save myself the time by looking at
Photographs, reminders of forgotten scenes
Photographs, images of yesterday
Photographs, autographs of time
When days grow still and hours pass like sighs
And age descends like mist that dims the brightest ray
A faded snapshot gives a single glimpse of yesterday
But the memory slips silently away
And when the scenes grow hazy
My imagination's lazy
I save myself the time by looking at
Photographs, reminders of forgotten scenes
Photographs, images of yesterday
Photographs, autographs of time
