"Love Is A Camera" lyrics

"Love Is A Camera"

A winter morning black as any night
A landscape held in time under the ice
There's a house on the hill
She's living there still
Rooms are full of pictures black and white
So, the story goes, she lives alone
Her company is framed in monochrome
She keeps them alive
Long after they die
No one ever knows until they're gone

Stand still evermore
Pose for eternity, with me
Your soul on my wall
Love is a camera full of memories

I once went to her house when I was young
The spell to be her subject was too strong
Now, from here, behind glass, I see more fools pass
Flies caught in a secret web she's spun

Stand still evermore
Pose for eternity, with me
Your soul on my wall
Love is a camera full of memories

Every photograph is a cenotaph
Won't you stay here a while?
In a flash, you'll see
You'll belong to me
All I need is a smile

Stand still evermore
Pose for eternity, with me
Your soul on my wall
Love is a camera full of memories
Stand still evermore
Pose for eternity, with me
Your soul on my wall
Love is a camera full of memories

Run, run away from the house on the hill
There's a witch in the house and she's living there still
Run, run away from the house on the hill
There's a witch in the house and she's living there still
