Photograph - Richard Julian

The passenger window framed you like a screen

And deep in my mind I was filming a scene

Of the land rushing by your shades and your hat

I prefer a memory to a photograph

It was merely a muse

It was in it was out

Till I made the mistake of speaking out loud

You said I got the camera right here in the back

Oh why'd I have to go and kill a moment like that

I prefer the memory to the photograph

Oooh memory to a photograph

You know I sometimes get this little deja vu

It comes in the dark when I'm lying with you

And even the salt in the air comes back

Then I'm open to anything but what you had

The blur of the land your shades and your hat

Oooh I prefer a memory to a photograph

No the picture we took didn't capture all this

Just a faraway look a scene that I missed

A sign of what was to come perhaps

Did you know then that when you were showing me that

I prefer the memory to the photograph

One world is round and the other is flat

Oooh memory to a photograph
