Lyrics Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Love Is a Camera

A winter morning black as any night

A landscape held in time under the ice

There's a house on the hill

She's living there still

Rooms are full of pictures black and white

So the story goes, she lives alone

Her company is framed in monochrome

She keeps them alive

Long after they've died

No one ever knows until they're gone

Stand still evermore

Pose for eternity with me

Your soul on my wall

Love is a camera full of memories

I once went to her house when I was young

The spell to be her subject was too strong

Now from here behind glass

I see more fools pass

Flies caught in the secret web she's spun

Stand still evermore

Pose for eternity with me

Your soul on my wall

Love is a camera full of memories

Every photograph is a cenotaph

Won't you stay here a while

In a flash you'll see, you belong to me

All I need is a smile

Stand still evermore

Pose for eternity with me

Your soul on my wall

Love is a camera full of memories

(2x)

There's a witch in the house that you're living next to

Run, run away from the house on the hill

There's a witch in the house that you're living next to
