[00:13.46]I've fallen in love with a girl in a photo
[00:18.78]She's kissing a boy who I swear I once knew
[00:24.51]The picture is faded, the image is distant
[00:29.47]But I think that this girl must be you
[00:35.30]Her hair is reflecting the afternoon sunlight
[00:40.48]She's thrown back her head and she's laughing with him
[00:45.61]He's standing along side as he catches her fall
[00:50.84]But they're both leaning out on a limb
[00:56.78]I'd love to find those two people and ask them
[01:02.32]How do you hold such a delicate dove
[01:07.70]What do you use when you lose the excitement
[01:12.77]And how do you hold on to love
[01:29.11]I've fallen in love with a cupboard of spices
[01:34.68]Reflecting the colors and flavors of us
[01:39.98]All of the bottles and boxes and labels
[01:45.08]All the directions and fuss
[01:50.85]A teaspoon of anger, a cup of confusion
[01:55.97]A pinch of denial and one paradox
[02:01.34]Carefully measuring emotions for so long
[02:06.34]All dried out and kept in a box
[02:11.88]I'd love to ask all the spices and powders
[02:16.86]Just when does your potency fail
[02:22.42]If we keep something long enough up on the shelf
[02:27.36]Will it always be bound to grow stale
[02:54.38]I've fallen love with a closet of clothing
[02:59.78]Your blouses and dresses, your robe and your shoes
[03:05.08]The cats like to sleep on the shelf with the blankets
[03:10.31]But I prefer sleeping with you
[03:16.19]All of this time we've been hanging together
[03:21.22]Our fibers and threads touching days after days
[03:26.14]Sometimes so soft I could never remove you
[03:31.53]Other times rubbing wrong ways
[03:36.94]I'd like to know how those clothes in the closet
[03:41.94]Survive all the wrinkles, the rips and the stains
[03:47.54]And what do we do when our sizes are changing
[03:52.75]And how do we grow with the gains
[03:58.20]I've fallen in love with some girl in a photo
[04:03.81]How can I hold such a delicate dove
[04:09.24]What can we do to recapture excitement
[04:14.48]And how do we hold on to love?
[04:26.39]How do you hold on to love?
[04:40.93]
