When I close my eyes I almost see The way you look When you were standing next to me And I still feel you holdin' me tight Oh I can hear the laughter And all the words you whispered in the night Picture this and paint it blue A photograph of me and you Smile has faded with the years Washed away by all the tears And when I look All I see are blue memories Oh how I remember the time There was love in your heart And that love was mine If I could turn it all 'round again We'd be lying side by side And things would be the way They were back then Picture this and paint it blue A photograph of me and you Smile has faded with the years Washed away by all the tears And when I look All I see are blue memories Picture this and paint it blue A photograph of me and you Smile has faded with the years Washed away by all the tears And when I look All I see are blue memories Blue memories Blue memories
