Holding a faded photo
On the mantel it stands
Dreams from long ago
Slipping through my hands
Colors once so bright
Now blurred in a haze
Love lost in the night
Frozen in those days
Old photo on the mantel
Tell me where did time go
Moments we could handle
Now shadows in the glow
Faces smile from the past
Whispering sweet goodbyes
Nothing ever seems to last
Underneath the changing skies
Memories in black and white
Dance around my mind
Caught in the soft light
Of days we left behind
Old photo on the mantel
Tell me where did time go
Moments we could handle
Now shadows in the glow
