i keep your picture by my bed
for when i'm feeling sad and i dont know why i would be
the way your smile is so real
i feel like i could start to understand, your grace
but i, i dont understand why your not here with me
and i, i dont even wanna know where else you'd be

(chorus)
cause i have photographs and memories of the times
when you werent on my mind, and i was alone
and i have poetry and drawings of my life,
when you werent on my side, and i didnt know
just what is love

writing moments on the wall
the different color keeps my mind away from missing you
and i can't wait to fall asleep
slip into my dreams where we can dance upon the stars
and i, i'll be as patient as a boy in love could ever be
and i, i feel like i was real until you were a part of me

(chorus)

i need you back
i need you back
i need you here
i need your smile
i need your eyes
i need you dear

cause every line on your face
makes a beautiful maze for my eyes to trace
every line on your face
makes a beautiful maze for my eyes to trace

cause i have photographs and memories of the times
when you werent on my mind, and i was alone
