PHOTOGRAPH

It was a hazy picture
Yellowed with time but so clear
The thought of past yesterdays
Leaks right out of my tears.

It wasn't the memory
That jolted back all the years
It confirmed the certainty
That the truth is my words fear.

CHORUS

I saw it in the photograph
What a laugh
I saw your face and it
Hadn't passed
I saw it in the photograph.

BRIDGE

Now I know where you've hidden
Secret trails you've ridden
But all can be forgiven
Can't we just go on livin'?


The image was a bit blurred
But I could never forget
The look of satisfaction
As you smiled through all the sweat.

It  was the look you revealed
That gave rise to suspicion
One that you concealed from me
One more crime of omission.
