The picture don’t do it justice
If you could see the things I see
Don’t need to hear about it secondhand
You’ll be there if you dare to
Come along with me

Drove down a road this morning
The sun was at my back
Curved down to the cold clear water
Past a run-down fishing shack
Across the bay the autumn leaves
Turned the hills to flame
A small bird just fluttered by
Singing out your name

Maybe we could rent a boat
Sail across the sunlit bay
You wrapped up in your winter coat
Just to keep the wind away
Spend the afternoon saying nothing
And when the sun goes down
Light a fire and drink some wine
And slowly drive back into town

The picture don’t do it justice
If you could see the things I see
Don’t need to hear about it secondhand
You’ll be there if you dare to
Come along with me

Pulling into the city at night
Every street has a name
Reminds me of the places that I’ve been to
It all begins to look the same
But underneath the banners and the lights
My mind begins to change
The humming that I’m feeling
In the centre of town
Keeps calling out your name

I wish that you could tag along
Sit beside me at a restaurant
Drinking whisky till three in the morning
Singing harmony on that karaoke song
Going on and on and on
The picture don’t do it justice
If you could see the things I see
Don’t need to hear about it secondhand
You’ll be there if you dare to
Come along with me
