Sunlight And Photographs

Jimmy Robbins


Verse 1 
the photographs aren't content growing wrinkled and old 
pages torn and corners fold 
just like i am not content writing poems not to send 
praying for the end 
i'll hold my breath please make it slow, you know i deserve it 
with my last six bleeding words i breathe, break my heart don't hurt it. 
Chorus 
if life was like a movie maybe we could go down together 
hand in hand camera's rolling forever 
but this is no story ending, and i'm no casanova 
there's no prize for admitting we let emotion take over 
Verse 2 
Scrap books kept and lost, they were tossed aside like sunday nights 
memories bleed away, like romance novels and day time dramas 
i'll hold my breath please make it slow, you know i deserve it 
with my last six bleeding words i breathe, break my heart don't hurt it 
Chorus 
Bridge 
i will always remember that night, we layed and counted down the sunlight in your yard underneath the stars, watching the silence in eachothers eyes
