Pictures On the Wall

about

Cowritten with David Lee Brown

lyrics

There's pictures on the wall
From over the years
So many smiles
So many tears
Whatever happened to the life we hung on the wall

There's pictures there
Of a gold wedding band
Two young hearts
Two younger hands
Those are the hands that put the pictures up on the wall

That wall
With the pictures of life
Holding up our past
Holding us tight
To the good times, not letting them fall
There's still room for one or two pictures up on the wall

Of some other time
Some other dream
In your face and mine
Now mirror, don't lie - is this the face that hangs on the wall

See those old black and whites
Stare down from above
Did we run out of time
Did we run out of love
How I miss hanging new pictures up on the wall

That wall
With the pictures of life
Holding up our past
Holding us tight
To the good times, not letting them fall
There's still room for one or two pictures up on the wall

From over the years
So many smiles
So many tears
Whatever happened to the life we hung on the wall
Whatever happened to the life we hung on the wall
