Lights showed us the way
Cameras caught the moments
Action was taken
Lights showed us the way
Cameras caught the moments
Action was taken
The many memories…
Here one moment and then gone the next
Followed by the days spent trying to remember how I traveled your curves
Until I remembered that behind my lens is the perfect place to capture fleeting memories
The only place I could hold you in the same spot for more than a minute…
To be the faded image in your back pocket
How did I ever earn the privilege to be loved by you
Memories turned into keepsakes because we couldn’t let go
If you look hard enough you’ll see the cake I dropped on the floor
In the corner sat the chair that couldn’t sit anyone else
-It had weak knees-
And though the brightness has faded I still see the shine in your eyes
Look at me and I come to life
And on the day I take my last breath I hope your face is the last I see
Add it to the list of faded images that I’ll keep with me forever
