I woke up this morning thinking of you
I should mail that letter I've been meanin’ to
Oh, words lose all meanin'
As they fall flat on the paper
Hearts like ours are made to be broken, broken
Lookin' for answers, searchin’ for clues
Whatever happened to me and to you?
Oh, rumors have no meaning
Comin' from the streetwise
I can only find the truth lookin' in your eyes
Yeah, you have the key hidden away
With my memories
Yeah, you have to stay
Your photograph remains
Pictures last longer than words
Yeah
Is it really the way you are?
I know it's just the same
Pictures last longer than words
Ooh, there's never a warning inside of you
And I still hear your voice in this empty room
Oh, words lose all meaning
As they fall flat on the carpet
Tears in the rain, it's still the same again
And you have the key hidden away
With the memories
Yeah, you have to stay
Your photograph remains
(Photograph remains)
Yeah, you have the key hidden away
With your memories, yeah
Stay
Your photograph remains
Pictures last longer than words, oh
Is it really the way you are?
I know it's just the same
Pictures last longer than words
Oh, can it be the way you are?
You've always been the same
Pictures last longer than words
It can’t be the way you are
You’ll never ever change
Pictures last longer than words
