Take Another Picture

Saw my father living in a picture

Squinting in the Michigan 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 wanna 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 wanna fade away
