Lyrics

I took your picture on the day we met
You gave me a smile so I told you my name
It was a summer I will never forget
You told me you loved me I told you the same

We had fun for a little while
Right away I knew it could never last
In five days I'd be back in school
I never knew five days could go by so fast

And when the sun went down
You kissed me one last time
It felt just like a photograph
A picture in my mind

chorus
Now all I have is a memory
It seems so long ago
But tonight I feel like you are here with me
As I sit here alone looking at pictures of you
wooh
Looking at Pictures of you
wooh

Sometime when I think of you
It makes me smile all over again
I wonder if you think of me too
Or if you remember my name

Cause when you held me tight
And kissed me one last time
It felt just like a photograph
A picture in my mind
