Saw my father living in a picture.
Squinting in the Ohio sun.
'Caught forever in his blouse and knickers.
Wasn't he the lucky one?
While the fear is growing stronger.
The sun is almost gone.
So hold me in your naked eye.
And shoot me on the run.
Oh, won't you please, please.
Take another picture.
Please, please freeze my features.
Oh, won't you please, please.
Take another.
I don't want to fade away.
I saw a picture hidden in the bedroom.
Underneath father's ties.
A beautiful woman caught naked forever.
Black strip over her eyes.
I still remember that picture.
The image sits sharp and clear.
And I'll never erase that eyeless face.
Still smiling all these years.
Oh, won't you please, please.
Take another picture.
Please, please freeze my features.
Oh, won't you please, please.
Take another.
I don't want to fade away.
