Wish that I took more photographs of us Said goodbye, now our love's collecting dust Just a memory of you is not enough I wish that I took more photographs of us
I can't believe I left you feeling solo I was just at Nan's going through old photos And you ain't in many of them You're barely in any of them Three or four of them I wish you were in more of them I just wish there were more of them 'Cause now all I got is memories And I cry but that river's run dry If only time was something money could buy Goodbye, but it ain't With words there's only so many pictures I can paint And I'm running out of film now There's only so many pictures I can take How does Faith feel looking at pictures of B? How does Courtney feel looking at pictures of Kurt? Is the pain worth the thousand words, I love you But I hate looking at pictures of you 'cause it hurts
Wish that I took more photographs of us Said goodbye, now our love's collecting dust Just a memory of you is not enough Wish that I took more photographs of us Oh oh oh, oh oh oh I wish that I took more photographs of us
We all thought we'd live forever We all thought that the moments would last But the moments don't last, the moments pass And the only thing that lasts is the photograph But what about the pictures we didn't take? What about the moments that we forget? What about the memories that we've lost? That only leave you full of feelings and regret Over the people we neglected And the time we took for granted When all you can do is close your eyes And hope that the memories develop in the darkness Like photos do I wish I had a time-machine and a photo-booth I know to grow I've got to learn to let go But I just wish that I had something I could hold on to
Wish that I took more photographs of us Said goodbye, now our love's collecting dust Just a memory of you is not enough I wish that I took more photographs of us Oh oh oh, oh oh oh I wish that I took more photographs of us
Last time we met, I saw a change in you You sat there calm and explained the truth How addiction ain't nothing but greed and guilt Could just eat the whole world like a baby roof And you got under my skin All the nights that eyes-rolled sunken in gin 'Cause I don't want you to go and die like Owen And bruv, I really wish I had a picture of him
I wish that I took more photographs of us Said goodbye, now our love's collecting dust Just a memory of you is not enough I wish that I took more photographs of us Oh oh oh, oh oh oh I wish that I took more photographs of us
