Words Don't Fit the Picture

Willie Hugh Nelson (pronounced /wɪli nɛlsən /; born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana. more »

If this is a game, we play
And if this is a roll, I play
Where are the words, I say to you
The words don't fit the picture anymore

And if we've been acting all along
And we both act right and we both act wrong
Where does it say that we should cry
It's just the words don't fit the picture anymore, anymore

The words don't fit the picture anymore
No need to force the love scenes anymore

And a one act play comes to an end
And we turn to leave, we can both part friends
But this is the time to say goodbye, goodbye
'Cause the words don't fit the picture anymore, anymore
