Picture of You

You called me late, sometime after two
And asked if I was still awake
You said you didn't want to be alone
So I put my coat on and ran to you
You never told me what was wrong
And stayed together without a word

You were angry, I could tell
Like you'd been through your own hell
And somewhere between the dark and dawn
I knew this night would carry on

Picture of you
Still inside my memories
In the space where I fall asleep
In the words I never repeat
In the silence that runs too deep
You're everything I can think
Every feeling comes through
And I'm still holding... a picture of you

At some point you held my hand
And asked if I would stay awhile
I told you I had nowhere else to be
And you looked at me and smiled
I didn't know it then
But that night stayed with me

You were closer than before
But still not saying what it was for
And I just stayed there with you
Like it was all I could do

Picture of you
Still living where my mind returns
In every lesson I never learned
In every place your silence turned
In every part of me that burns
You're the reason I hold on
Everything I go back to
And I'm still holding... a picture of you

Maybe I never said it right
But I still feel that night
Like something I can't undo
Something that stayed with you

Picture of you
Still where my thoughts begin
Like a light I keep within
Even when the days grow thin
You're the reason I don't forget
Everything I haven't said
And I'm keeping... a picture of you
