Pictures Of Us

[Verse 1]
There goes Bonnaroo in the summer heat
Polaroids from Panama Beach
Spring break 08, next to Mardi Gras beads from New Orleans
And that blue thumbtack is holding up
Those two Red Rock ticket stubs
And an eight by ten of us back when
We looked a lot like love

[Chorus]
Here's to burning that proof
Watching these flames turn blue
No they don't tell the whole truth
Tear filled eyes and goodbyes ain't worth holding on to
So I'm sending them to the moon
With a book of matches, ambеrs and ashes
An empty glass and a good buzz
Tonight I'm giving up thesе pictures of us

[Verse 2]
Always pictured you in your momma's dress
Standing there on the church house steps
The whole town coming out
And wishing us the best
And that two bedroom picket fence house
Might as well have been torn down
I can act like it ain't on my mind
But it's all I think about

[Chorus]
So here's to burning that proof
Watching these flames turn blue
No they don't tell the whole truth
Tear filled eyes and goodbyes ain't worth holding on to
So I'm sending them to the moon
With a book of matches, ambers and ashes
An empty glass and a good buzz
Tonight I'm giving up these pictures of us
Yeah yeah
I'm giving up

[Bridge]
All these freeze frame memories
Are soaked in whiskey and gasoline
But all I see is what we were
What we'll never be

[Chorus]
So here's to burning that proof
Watching these flames turn blue
No they don't tell the whole truth
Tear filled eyes and goodbyes
Here's to burning that proof
Watching these flames turn blue
No they don't tell the whole truth
Tear filled eyes and goodbyes ain't worth holding on to
So I'm sending them to the moon
With a book of matches, ambers and ashes
An empty glass and a good buzz
Tonight I'm giving up and burning up these pictures of us
These pictures of us
