My favorite picture of you lyrics

My favorite picture of you

Is the one where you're staring

Straight into the lens

It's just a Polaroid shot

Someone took on the spot

No beginning, no end

It's just a moment in time

You can't have back

You never left but your bags were packed

Just in case

My favorite picture of you

Is bent and faded

And it's pinned to my wall

Oh, and you were so angry

It's hard to believe

We were lovers at all

There's a fire in your eyes

You've got your heart on your sleeve

A curse on your lips, but all I can see

Is beautiful

My favorite picture of you

Is the one where

Your wings are showing

Oh, and your arms are crossed

Your fists are clenched

Not gone but going

Just a stand up angel

Who won't back down

Nobody's fool, nobody's clown

You were smarter than that

My favorite picture of you

Is the one where

It hasn't rained yet

Oh and as I recall

Came a winter squall

And we got soaking wet

It's a thousand words

In the blink of an eye

The camera loves you

And so do I

Click

My favorite picture of you

Is the one where you're staring

Straight into the lens
