"Old Photographs" lyrics

"Old Photographs"

Pictures of people
I've never known board them trains
Crooked church steeple
Stands alone on an empty lane

Old photographs
Negatives of nowhere towns
Old photographs
Stories told without making a sound
Old photographs

Sand scattered sea
A mother stays at the tide
A carnival scene
Half-dressed clown with a painted smile

Old photographs
Negatives of nowhere towns
Old photographs
Stories told without a single sound
Old photographs

Black and white TV
In the corner of the room
A man on the screen
The curtain's closed but the light comes through

Old photographs
Negatives of nowhere towns
Old photographs
Stories told without making a sound
Old photographs
