"Picture Of You" lyrics

"Picture Of You"

In the night there are sights to be seen
Stars like jewels on the crown of a queen
But the only sight I'm gonna view
Is that wonderful picture of you

On a streetcar or in the cafe?
All of the evening and most of the day
My mind is in a maze, what can I do
I still see that picture of you

It was last summer, I fell in love
My heart told me what to do
I saw you then on the crest of a hill
And I took a little picture of you

Then you were gone like a dream in the night
With you in my heart, my love and my light
I didn't know your name, what could I do?
I've only a picture of you

Then you were gone like a dream in the night
With you in my heart, my love and my light
I didn't know your name, what could I do?
I've only a picture of you, oh yeah
That wonderful picture of you
I'm left with a picture of you, oh yeah
That wonderful picture of you
