When I can't see you

You're always near

Back right pocket

I keep you there

Safely hidden

For all those times

When nothing else at all

Can get me by



Billfold out deep inside

Amongst ID and credit cards

I reach in to pull out

A thousand words of photo art

Wallet-sized, never bent

Or ever torn up in the least

I take good care of you

You mean so much to me



Pictures of you and I

They always make me smile

Even at the worst of moments

They're always what I seek

Whenever I am weak

They keep my head up

And my heart unbroken



Hair is flowing

Eyes and smile

Jump off the paper

And over miles

To bring you to me

Almost for real

No matter where I am

Or how I feel



Billfold out deep inside

Amongst ID and credit cards

I reach in to pull out

A thousand words of photo art

Wallet-sized, never bent

Or ever torn up in the least

I take good care of you

You mean so much to me



Pictures of you and I

They always make me smile

Even at the worst of moments

They're always what I seek

Whenever I am weak

They keep my head up

And my heart unbroken



It's so hard spending time away

Even short hours, much less a day

I might as well tear out my lungs

Because we fit together

Nobody knows me better

Without you I'll come undone

Undone



Pictures of you and I

They always make me smile

Even at the worst of moments

They're always what I seek

Whenever I am weak

They keep my head up

And my heart unbroken



My heart unbroken
