Raindrops of Pictures

I WAS GOING THROUGH THE CLOSET
KNOCKED YOUR OLD BOX OVER
THE ONE THAT SAYS IT’S ONLY YOURS

AND AS ALL THE PICTURES
FELL DOWN LIKE RAINDROPS
SPILLING OUT REMEMBER WHENS
OF US
I STARTED TO WONDER
JUST HOW LONG YOU’D BEEN
COLLECTING US

THERE WAS ONE OF US FROM HOMECOMING THAT YEAR
YOUR BIRTHDAY ON MY BED, AND ME IN MY SUN DRESS
PROM MY SENIOR YEAR, WHEN WE DANCED TO
I’LL WAIT FOR YOU
AND IT ONLY MEANT YOUR SENIOR YEAR STILL TO COME

AND AS ALL THE PICTURES
FELL DOWN LIKE RAINDROPS
SPILLING OUT REMEMBER WHENS
OF US
I STARTED TO WONDER
JUST HOW LONG YOU’D BEEN
COLLECTING US

I SAW THE PICTURES OF US ON THE SWINGS LATE AT NIGHT
GOOFING OFF WITH YOUR FAMILY THAT THANKSGIVING
YOU BUILDING THE TREE HOUSE IN OUR FIRST YARD
BACK WHEN WE FIRST GOT OUR LIFE TOGETHER SET WAY

AND AS ALL THE PICTURES
FELL DOWN LIKE RAINDROPS
SPILLING OUT REMEMBER WHENS
OF US
I STARTED TO WONDER
JUST HOW LONG YOU’D BEEN
COLLECTING US

AND THEN I KNEW…
SINCE THE DAY I BE-CAME-- YOURS----
