"Pictures of You"
words: smith
music: smith/gallup/williams/thompson/o'donnell/tolhurst
i've been looking so long at these pictures of you
that i almost beleive that they're real
i've been living so long with my pictures of you
that i almost believe that the pictures are all i can feel
remembering you standing quiet in the rain
as i ran to your heart to be near
and we kissed as the sky fell in holding you close
how i always held close in your fear
remembering you running soft through the night
you were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
and screamed at the make-believe
screamed at the sky
and you finally found all your courage to let it all go
remembering you fallen into my arms
crying for the death of your heart
you were stone white so delicate lost in the cold
you were always so lost in the dark
remembering you how you used to be slow drowned
you were angels so much more than everything
oh hold for the last time
then slip away quietly open my eyes but i never see anything
if only i had thought of the right words
i could have hold on to your heart
if only i'd thought of the right words
i wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you
Looking So long at these pictures of you
but i never hold on to your heart
looking so long for the words to be true
but always just breaking apart my pictures of you
there was nothing in the world
that i ever wanted more than to feel you
deep in my heart there was nothing in the world
that i ever wanted more than to never feel
the breaking apart all my pictures of you...

"Just Like Heaven"
words: Robert Smith
music: smith/gallup/thompson/williams/tolhurst
"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it And I promise you
I promise that I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you
" Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways
I had To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"
You Soft and only You Lost and lonely
You Strange as angels Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water You're just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me
You Soft and only You Lost and lonely You
Just like heaven.
