"Picture Cards Can't Picture You" lyrics
"Picture Cards Can't Picture You"
Didn't try to fall in love with you
Tried everything that I could do
To keep from falling
Like I've done so many times
Tried to wash it all away
In anything and every day
I think of all the things you said
When we were all alone
I saw daylight in your eyes
I saw daylight in your eyes
Wish I could but I can't say
Tomorrow's still a day away
I always love the time
That I can spend with you
Who can know and who can tell
I never seen a wishin' well
That held what its' supposed to hold but who knows
Maybe somewhere there might be
I saw daylight in your eyes
I saw daylight in your eyes
Time will come and time will go
And I believe in things I know
Been doing it a long time
Guess I can again
Win or draw no chance to lose
Picture cards can't picture you
But I can see you like you are
If I just close my eyes

Mandolin Orange - "Time We Made Time" Lo, gently she flows
Her depths hold no secrets
That's where you'll find my rage
Where the loss and the tears

You don't know what you got so you want what you can't have
I love laugh at all of the hours
All the jokes that I know
Someway make you sour
Adios Maria...
