Photo Of You by Alison Ferrier

When I came round that evening, you wouldn't let me in
So I walked all the way back home
The clouds turned grey and yellow as the sun went down
I knew you shouldn't be alone

I couldn't cope with the loneliness,
My nightmare was coming true
I only had a photograph of you

You'd hoped for more than anything, you had nothing to lose
You said it was more than you could bear
You waited for a sunny day at the end of July
But the truth is, life can be so unfair

I couldn't cope with the loneliness,
My nightmare was coming true
I only had a photograph of you

Boarded-up windows over-look your over-grown yard,
There's nothing but litter blowing around
Why did you keep me out? I could've helped you through the pain
I would've held your hand when the sun went down.

I couldn't cope with the loneliness,
My nightmare was coming true
I only had a photograph of you
