I Took Your Picture

I took your picture
I felt my heartbeat slow down
It's hard to miss you
'Cause you're the one thing moving in the background

I bite my tongue and try to work through the thick of it
My lips are numb when I'm not sure if my teeth will fit
I've got this problem and I tried to tell you
I watch the photograph its fading away

Close to someone's reject
Long play is the enemy
Close to someone's reject
Hope it's not the end of me

Tinge of blue (close to someone's reject)
To the end (long play is the enemy)
Left our hearts (close to someone's reject)
With regret, I'm learning

I took your picture
I saw the light shine on you
But I can fix it
They got a new way now, its all that we do

I'm running out of ways to get to the truth of it
Out time is nothing now, it slips through our fingertips
I saw it coming and I tried to tell you
I took the photograph and threw it away

Close to someone's reject
Long play is the enemy
Close to someone's reject
Hope it's not the end of me

Tinge of blue (close to someone's reject)
To the end (long play is the enemy)
Left our hearts (close to someone's reject)
With regret, I'm learning
