Lyrics

BOX OF PHOTOGRAPHS

VERSE 1
Box of photographs, box of tears and laughs
Box of lens flairs and mistakes, box of days at the lake
Box of pets and county fairs, box of trips to here and there

CHORUS
A simple past that's hard to find
Images left behind
Flash picture in your mind
Memories changed by time
Staring at old photographs, silver dust memories left behind
Yellowed pages curl, photo album with a broken spine

VERSE 2
Sleeves of negatives inverted, dark houses now deserted
Box of those who might be cousins, unknown faces by the dozens
Box of people now deceased, proof of their youth at least

CHORUS

VERSE 3
Box of photographs, box of those better halves
Box that holds each day one, box of things left undone
Box of things from the past, box of things we hoped would last

CHORUS

VERSE 1/4
Box of photographs, box of tears and laughs
Box of lens flairs and mistakes, box of days at the lake
Box of pets and county fairs, box of trips to here and there

CHORUS+
A simple past that's hard to find
Images left behind
Flash picture in your mind
Memories changed by time
Staring at old photographs, silver dust memories left behind
Yellowed pages curl, photo album with a broken spine
Staring at old photographs, silver dust memories left behind
