I chanced upon a site wherein this song was playing. I haven't heard this for such a long time. It's quite nostalgic. Nothing special though, I just remember how I used to love this song.
AS STILL AS A PHOTOGRAPH Cacai Velasquez
I used to say that I'd readily swim The seven seas for you Now, I can't reach the shore I used to say that only I held the key to your heart Now, I can't find the door Slowly fading like a painting on your wall Yet as clear as the sound of your laugh Forever captured in my mind you'll remain As still as a photograph My shoes are now worn from walking too far Still farther I go, My hands are so tired from hiding the scar Still I refuse to show And though I know that it's wrong, You're still my concern Like a thorn in my side, It's hard to be strong When you've nowhere to turn When you've nowhere to hide Slowly fading like a painting on your wall Yet as clear as the sound of your laugh Forever captured in my mind you'll remain As still as a photograph
And though the wound burns, it's mine to keep To hold in my arms, And to sing me to sleep, For it's all that I have, I now realize, The memory lives when reality dies When reality dies
Slowly fading like a painting on your wall Yet as clear as the sound of your laugh Forever captured in my mind you'll remain As still as a photograph
