Lyrics

Verse:
I remember when, we first met and I couldn't help but think about how beautiful you were.
You caught me by surprise, as I looked in those blue eyes.
Then we lived and laughed and loved underneath the starlit skies.
You thought I was the one.
How could you have this much fun with someone you barely knew?
I loved every moment that we shared, I didn't know I'd care about you the way I do.
Chorus:
Now I look back at the Kodak Moments of our lives, memories frozen in time and I can't help but sigh.
Cause you left me all alone. These photographs I own are all that keep me warm.
I'm missing you.
Verse:
Then there's the time you stayed the night and I awoke to find your gum was in my hair.
I was so mad. You tried hard not to laugh.
Then you cut it out, left a gap, for a week I wore a hat.
I couldn't help but smile, every time we told that story. Life with you was never boring.
You made me feel alive. Each night we spent together, I want to last forever.
Chorus:
Now I look back at the Kodak Moments of our lives, memories frozen in time and I can't help but sigh.
Cause you left me all alone. These photographs I own are all that keep me warm.
I'm missing you.
Verse:
Wresting in your bed over a joke you said. We tossed and turned, laughed and kissed, I didn't know it could feel like this.
But something happened, your love changed with the seasons. There was no clear reason, you just moved on.
I made a mistake. I let you go too easy, I should've held on.
Chorus:
Now I look back at the Kodak Moments of our lives, memories frozen in time and I can't help but sigh.

I'm missing you.
I'm missing you.
