Here's a little girl playing dress up she's somewhere under all that lace Standing in her momma's high heel shoes with a lipstick covered face Here's a little boy on a pony he's a cowboy all the way Used to pull my hair and make me mad at the Saturday matinee Oh who'd have thought I'd lose my heart to the same little boy someday
Looking through my old pictures faded photographs Some of them bring me close to tears others make me laugh Old mem'ries they seem to come alive And open up the past again and let me dream inside
Here's brother with his very first automobile We thought he'd wash the paint away He took a job that took him West he's doing very well But we don't see much of brother these days Oh and this is my favorite of my paw-paw he's all dressed up in his Sunday suit Wide brimmed hat a watch on a chain I'm gonna tell you the truth It's a picture of a downright handsome man caught in the prime oh his youth
Looking through my old pictures... They open up the past again and let me dream inside
