《 Don Henley - Take A Picture Of This (04:05) 》

A long long time ago

When we were young and pretty

We ruled the world, we stopped the time, we knew it all, we owned this city

Running with the crowd, carefree and proud I heard somebody say

Take a picture of this

Ooh, take a picture of this

The years went rushing by, in the twinkling of an eye, we rolled with the changes

Our life we knew was gone

Our friends had all moved on, time rearranges

But on our wedding day, they all came back to say, congratulations

Take a picture of this

Ooh, take a picture of this

Then we raised a family of our own

We were so happy baby

But now those kids have grown and gone

I gave it everything I had

Through the good times and the bad

But now I'm down here on the floor

'Cause I don't know you anymore

Yeah that's a suitcase, yeah that's a ticket for a plane

There's no one here to talk to, no reason to remain

When you spend all your time living in the past

With all those pictures that you took

Here's one more for the book

Take a picture of this, this is me leaving

Take a picture of this, this is me walking away

Take a picture of this, take a picture of this

Take a picture of this
