I found a picture of you
Made me think, made me blue
It’s always hard when love moves on
Thought I was over you, not mourning what’s gone

I found a picture of you
Made me think, remember true
All the funny times we used to share
The giggling in corners, smirking at friends hair
Moments of memory, to treasure not despair

I found a picture of you
Made me think, a life review
The good, the bad, the joy the hurt
You were a selfish pig you held me back I was dessert
You taught me much, of life then – left me to revert

I found a picture of you
Made me think, I have started a new
What lessons I learned, from our love affair
Have made me stronger taught me when to care
I learned to love me ,
yet still have love to spare

I found a picture of you
Made me think, pastures new
I realised you were a hollow dream
A picture of love not always supreme.
