Baby Pictures

Lyrics

Baby pictures and your boy

Faded red ribbon on a heart of pure alloy

Drenched in perfume

From the twinkle in your eye

Until you tumble in the tomb

Baby pictures more than I assume

Does she picture me with sighing and fainting

Does she picture me and laugh?

You might say that I am no oil painting

Sometimes I'm merely a faded photograph

You say I'm your one and only

With fondest remembrance

But you only think you know me

By the very slightest of resemblance

Do I really love you without a reason

Driven in and out of my mind

Driven to your knees then

You can picture anything you please

But baby pictures

You can picture anything you please

But baby pictures

You can picture anything you please

But baby pictures

You can picture anything you please

But baby pictures

You can picture anything...
