Picture memory perfect and clear
and what it could do to you and me dear
recollection an instant replay
of every move we've ever made
I'll remember you through a soft morning haze
where the dapples of sun light up our better days
and the sorrow quite gracefully hides in the shade
lying on damp earth like paper
oh how memory serves the maker
Picture memory clear as this day
hiding the truth with no faith in our strength
as if all our pearls weren't each tied with a knot
and if one broke away we would lose the whole lot
Chorus
