"Photograph" lyrics

"Photograph"
(originally by Nana Caymmi)

Looking at the photograph that's faded
Of a boy and girl
Created to discover love together
A summer day, a secret place
I still remember
Now I see our hearts were children then
So brave and innocent

Defying all the reasons people gave us
Couldn't save our dream from coming
To an end

Searching the past for a sign
Recall the day and time
You started to leave me behind

A moment in a picture lasts forever
Full of promises that never
Chase the shadows from the daylight
In the photograph of what we
Might have been
