"These Photographs" Lyrics

You're Sylvia Plath as you drip from the bath
I hand you a robe and so it goes
The moment'd pass

You're Simone De Beauvoir as you get out the car
The way you read me
No one can see me
It's who you are

And these photographs keep me alive
Babe here's your song
Babe
It took too long to find in your eyes my best surprise

You're Nina Simone when you talk on the phone
You sing to me and I'm truly no longer alone

You're Mary Cassatt when people tell you you're not
You're like a child all the while
I need you a lot

And these photographs keep me alive
Babe here's your song
Babe
It took too long to find in your eyes my best surprise

And I wanna know what you know
And I wanna go where you go

These things remind me of
These things remind me of
These things remind me of you

Babe here's your song
Babe
It took too long to find in your eyes my best surprise
