Photograph

Loving can hurt
Loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know

And when it gets hard
You know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive

We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen still

So you can keep me
Inside the pocket
Of your ripped jeans
Holdin' me closer
Till our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
Wait for me to come home

Loving can heal
Loving can mend your soul
And is the only thing that I know, know

I swear it will get easier
Remember that with every piece of ya
And it's the only thing we take with us when we die

We keep this love in a photograph
We make these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Our hearts were never broken
And time's forever frozen still

So you can keep me
Inside the pocket
Of your ripped jeans
Holdin' me closer
Till our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone

And if you hurt me
Well that's okay, baby
Only words bleed
Inside these pages
You just hold me
And I won't ever let you go
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home

Oh, you can fit me
Inside the necklace you got
When you were sixteen
Next to your heartbeat
Where I should be
Keep it deep within your soul

And if you hurt me
Well that's okay, baby
Only words bleed
Inside these pages
You just hold me
And I won't ever let you go

When I'm away
I will remember
How you kissed me
Under the lamppost
Back on 6th Street
Hearing you whisper
Through the phone
Wait for me to come home
