“Photograph” Lyrics
By Paolo Santos

I still have a photograph of you
I’ve kept it all these years
Guess it would make you laugh to know
It still brings back the tears

From another place and time
When your love was mine

Picture of innocence in your eyes
It moved me even now
If I had the confidence I try
To bring you back somehow

To another place and time
When your love was mine
Maybe I’m just a sentimental fool
Bringing back memories from a photograph of you

Back to another place and time
When your love was mine
Maybe I’m just a sentimental fool
Bringing back memories from a photograph of you

I still have a photograph of you
I’ve kept it all this years…

Refrain 1:

Lookin’ at the distance my attention was disturbed
As this moonly silky presence gallantly approach the curve
Pretending that i know you i pervertedly just smile
Knowin’ i am invisible to your naked eye

Chorus:
Over a cup of coffee we will travel with our words
The espresso shoots me up the surrounding is a blur
Over a cup of coffee all drinking drop by drop
Thinkin’ lovely lady can you share with me just another cup

Moved my chair into a new position tryin’ to get a better view like a secret mission
Watchin’ every move you make don’t think it’s time for me to take a toilet brake

Refrain 2:
Gotta keep it together
Though i ain’t goin’ nowhere
Been here like forever
I just don’t really care

Chorus

I’m glad i chose
To start my day with a coffee toast
I did not sleep all day
Talk about how i spend my time away

Chorus

I never had anything happened so fast
I took one look and i shattered like glass
I guess i let it show cause your smile told me you knew
That you’re everything i’ve ever wanted at once
There’s no holding this heart when it knows what it wants
And i never wanted anything more than to know you

I was swept away
No one in the world but you and i
Gotta find a way to make you feel the way that i do
I was swept away
Without a warning
Like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away

And so it begins
This journey of love
The summer wind carries us to places all our own
The words of a look
The language of touch
They way that you want me means so much
And i never wanted anything more than to love you
Can’t you see that i’m

I was swept away
No one in the world but you and i
Gotta find a way
To make you feel the way that i do
I was swept away
Without a warning
Like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
Away… seeing my tomorrows in your eyes
I was swept away

Ooh i hope i wake up soon
Ooh i’m a victim of that crazy moon

The very first time you said my name
I knew it would never sound the same
Something about me has changed forever

Can’t you see that i’m swept away
No one in the world but you and i
Gotta find a way
To make you feel the way that i do
I was swept away
Without a warning
Like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
Away… seeing my tomorrows in your eyes
Gotta find a way
To make you feel that way that i do
I was swept away
Without a warning
Like night when the morning begins the day
I was swept away
We were swept away
Dreaming of you
Swept away

I held her close to me
Coz i know she breaks so easily
And then i told her
Though i knew no matter how i tried to console her
Then she’d do the best she could
But there are times the best is no damn good
And no matter how you try to be kind
There’s always still a part of you you’ll leave behind
When they fall apart
There’s no easy way to break somebody’s heart.

I lied and told her she’ll be fine
Though we both knew it was just a lie
I had to do it
Coz i had said anything to help me get through it.
And she reached out for my hand
And her simple touch was more than i could stand
And i had to turn away coz i knew
All the hurt that she was feeling, i was feeling too
When they fall apart
There’s no easy way to break somebody’s heart.

She could’ve gotten angry
And made me feel like a guilty child
But i realized that never was her style
I wanted her to hurt me
And not treat me like a friend
I wanted her to say “there’d be someday
I’d come crawling on my knees to ask her back again”
But she acted like a lady till the end
Oh, what a lady!

I thought that she’d bring down
But she smiled at me and never made a sound
And i guess she understood in her way
Coz her silence told me everything she could not say
When they fall apart
There’s easy way to break
There’s just no easy way
There’s no easy way to break somebody’s heart…

There are places i remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remained
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends
I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, i’ve loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When i think of love as something new
Though i know i never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i often stop and think about them
In my life, i love you more

Though i know i never ever lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i often stop and think about them
But in my life, i love you more
I love you more…i love you more

For you i give a lifetime of stability
Anything you want of me
And nothin’ is impossible
For you there are no words or ways to show my love
Or all the thoughts i’m thinking of
’cause this life is no good alone
Since we’ve become one, i’ve made a change
Everything i do now makes sense
All roads end
All i do is for you

For you i share the cup of love that overflows
And anyone who knows us knows
That i would change all faults i have
For you there is no low or high or in between
Of my heart you haven’t seen
’cause i share all i have and am
Nothing i’ve said’s hard to understand
And all i feel, i feel deeper still
And always will
All this love is for you

Refrain
Every note that i play
Every word i might say
And every melody i feel
Are only for you and your appeal

Every page that i write
Everyday of my life
Would not be filled without the things
That my love for you now brings

For you i’d make a promise of fidelity
Now and for eternity
And no one could replace this vow
For you i’d take your hand and heart and everything
And add to them a wedding ring
’cause this life is no good alone
Since we’ve become one, you’re all i know
And if this feeling should leave, i’d die
And here’s why
All i am is for you

Coda
Everything i do now makes sense
All roads end
All i do is for you
