John Wesley Harding - Still Photo Lyrics
I saw you yesterdayI couldnt let you beI had to sift through broken glassTo find out if you missed meBut all I found was a slow fadeAnd a gift-wrapped box of band aidsWith a note that said Im never coming homeBeneath my single bedEverythings haphazardTheres boxes full of bits of youAnd none of them are numberedAnd when I search, its deja vuThings I think I knewI should have thrown away this time last yearEverytime I touch youYou move so slowAnd youre still like your photoI heard me yesterdayRepeating my own nameTo convince myselfThat none of us had changedAnd now Im walking round the groovesOf a record I lost when we movedTheres dust and scratches mixed with all these tearsEverytime I touch youYou move so slowAnd youre still like your photoShould we throw it all awayThe failed long shots through far distant stylesThose forced smiles, those forced smilesIt started so on the markBut it missed by one million milesNothing has developedThis darkroom gets me downId throw on all the lightsBut Im afraid youd come aroundYoure living in a limbo hellA life thats only parallelIs the real you aware whats going on?Everytime I touch youYou move so slowAnd youre still like your photo
