They don’t know my story
Photos
I woke up one morning
Everything had changed
Mum isn’t feeling well
I’ll have to cope with
The story of my life, I spruced myself up
As my dad told me, roses don’t grow
in garbage
I run, I go round and round
I’m going mental
I come and go, I'm flying to Rio
Apart from my family, tell me who was there
While you follow1 me, I take refuge in prayer
[Chorus]
And they want to know why I don’t smile in the photos
They don’t know my story
Rocked by the sound of guitars
Beng, beng
If I don’t smile in the photos
It’s because my smile is in mourning
Even in the crowd I feel lonely
Hey hey
Photos
The future worries me, the past holds me back
The present makes me tired, from this life I no longer expect anything
Many would like to have the key
They hang around me, around me, but my heart is locked
Don’t talk me about love, I’m nobody’s girlfriend
Upset but not weak
Save your ‘Valentino’, I won’t be your Valentine
Together you’re stronger
While I stand alone
I’ve gained a few pounds
Since I took my2 ring off
[Chorus]
And they want to know why I don’t smile in the photos
They don’t know my story
Rocked by the sound of guitars
Beng, beng
If I don’t smile in the photos
It’s because my smile is in mourning
Even in the crowd I feel lonely
Hey ho
I’ve been wandering in my town to forget
My head aches so I prefer being alone
My soul is broken
Don’t come near, guy
Don’t you call me Farah, you know me only through my photos
I’ve been wandering in my town to forget
My head aches so I prefer being alone
My soul is broken
Don’t come near, guy
Don’t you call me Farah, you know me only through my photos
[Chorus]
And they want to know why I don’t smile in the photos
They don’t know my story
Rocked by the sound of guitars
Bing, bing
If I don’t smile in the photos
It’s because my smile is in mourning
Even in the crowd I feel lonely
Hey ho
And they want to know why I don’t smile in the photos
Bing, bing
Rocked by the sound of guitars
