SPOKEN:
All that's left of our old love now is just your picture, 8 by10.(
A souvenir of things that might have been)(
My lonely world is only 8 by 10)(8 by 10, 8 by 10)
SPOKEN:
I remember the night that you gave me this picture.
I oughtto-
I'verelived it so many times.
I remember how
I couldn't wait to get homeand put in aframe and tell everybody that you were mine.
Backups continue with (
A souvenir of things that might havebeen)while
Bill
SPEAKS:
Because you
WERE mine, at least till someone elsecamealong and took you off out of my sight.
It's a good thing that you didleave me yourpicture, though.
Because now
I can cry on your shoulder every night.(8 by 10, 8 by 10)(
My lonely world is only 8 by 10)
SPOKEN:
It's awful to be jealous of an old picture frame but
I'm jealousof anythingthat's close to you.
And that picture frame seems to be holding youpretty tight.
That looks like more than
I'
LL ever do.
I wish that
I could just be theglass in that
