Photograph Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Lovin' can hurt

Lovin' can hurt sometimes

But it's the only thing that I know

And when it gets hard

You know it can get hard sometimes

It is the only thing that makes us feel alive

[Pre-Chorus]

We keep this love in a photograph

We made these memories for ourselves

Where our eyes are never closin'

Hearts are never broken

And time's forever frozen still

[Chorus]

So you can keep me

Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans

Holdin' me closer 'til our eyes meet

You won't ever be alone

Wait for me to come home

[Verse 2]

Lovin' can heal

Lovin' can mend your soul

And it's the only thing that I know, know

I swear it will get easier

Remember that with every piece of ya

Mm, and it's the only thing we take with us when we die

[Pre-Chorus]

Mm, we keep this love in this photograph

We made these memories for ourselves

Where our eyes are never closin'

Hearts were never broken

And time's forever frozen still

[Chorus]

So you can keep me

Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans

Holdin' me closer 'til our eyes meet

You won't ever be alone

And if you hurt me

Well, that's okay, baby, only words bleed

Inside these pages, you just hold me

And I won't ever let you go

Wait for me to come home

[Bridge]

Wait for me to come home

Wait for me to come home

Wait for me to come home

[Chorus]

Oh, you can fit me

Inside that necklace you got when you were sixteen

Next to your heartbeat, where I should be

Keep it deep within your soul

And if you hurt me

Well, that's okay, baby, only words bleed

Inside these pages, you just hold me

And I won't ever let you go

[Outro]

When I'm away, I will remember how you kissed me

Under the lamppost back on Sixth Street

Hearin' you whisper through the phone

"Wait for me to come home"
