Photograph Lyrics written by Oksana Porteous We were both just eighteen inches tall in that beat up old wheelbarrow Her name was Carla and we played Red Rover and we Care-bear stared those cars to come over He was seventeen and his only dream was to go to some places that he’d never seen And the world said don’t, but I packed his bags and said go Your small apartment with your hide-a-bed was the perfect place to lay my head We blew a tire just outside Quill Lake so we painted our nails on the back of the tail gate You held my flowers and I held yours and we took to the trampoline with our swords And we saw our hair go blond red black and blue And snap, there goes another photograph How’d I even get here I couldn’t tell you now Cause there’s so many things that are so unclear All we were scared of is that it would end before we’d begun So we said, turn around, take ten paces and run Key chain is scratched but I never lost it ‘cause it spent ten years in my front pocket Went back in time to find a lost what if just to see that it didn’t have all I had given it I was seventeen and my only dream was to go to some places that I’d never seen And the world said don’t, but I packed my bags and said go And snap, there goes another photograph How’d I even get here I couldn’t tell you now Cause there’s so many things that are so unclear All we were scared of is that it would end before we’d begun So we said, turn around, take ten paces and run And I am standing here Looking forward into a mirror And I break into a million seven years And you are here with me Soaking wet from the ocean breeze And I ask, can we stay here, please, please, please And it went snap, there goes another photograph How’d I even get here I couldn’t tell you now Cause there’s so many things that are so unclear All we were scared of is that it would end before we’d begun So we said turn around, take ten paces no… This way I wanna see your face, yeah… Turn around, take ten paces and run
