Pictures of Us Sad

Couples only photograph the good times As if joy was all they had But that won't help them when they break up Let's take some pictures of us sad I have pictures of you kissing me In matching costumes on Halloween The birthday party I threw for you You and me and a scenic view Our shadows in a heart of snow The trip we took to Chicago All of our friends ice skating The pics we took that were just for me It's killing me to look through albums Of all the better times we had It's only making me feel worse Let's take some pictures of us sad Dressed up for a holiday Self shots taken from an arm away In the bar where we first met Up on stage singing a duet Dressed as June and Johnny Cash In silly hats or alien masks Sets of three from photo booths These photos prove you once loved me too If we were smart we would plan ahead And get the camera when things were bad Because I think it might help me now If I had some pictures of us sad I wish I had a photo of You telling me you fell out of love I wish a pic could convince myself I could be happy with someone else But all I have is photographic proof I was only happy when I had you
