Picture Perfect

Funny how wedding photos look from a distance
Turning browning pages curled up at the ends
There we stand all primped and polished
The Photographers' got us in just the right amount of light
Picture perfect

I can see your face from here, I can get real close
In the end
You were just a little too far away
Mirror images
Reflecting back the pain
It's a pity the cracks don't show through the glass
Picture perfect

Don't need a ticket, got your picture, spilled my coffee on it 
But the outlines' still OK
Don't need to write me, think I remember
Enough about you to forget
Time 
Changes all our wants, our wishes, our desires
Times' dividing our world 
We see through different eyes

You liked my company, but not quite enough
In the end you were just a little too far away
We ended up alone
Look what I got, just a lot of lonely pictures to look at
Picture perfect

The wheel spun round facing us towards each other
And I guess 
That's just about the saddest thing
It wasn't where we wanted to look
Wasn't where we wanted to go
Wasn't how we wanted to feel
Wasn't even who we wanted to be 
We wanted to be

Don't need a ticket, got your picture, spilled my coffee on it 
But the outlines' still OK
Don't need to write me, think I remember
Enough about you to forget
Time 
Changes all our wants, our wishes, our desires
Times' dividing our world 
We see through different eyes

It wasn't where we wanted to look, wasn't where we wanted to go
Wasn't how we wanted to feel
Wasn't even who we wanted to be
Wasn't where we wanted to look, wasn't where we wanted to go
Wasn't how we wanted to feel
Wasn't even who we wanted to be
We wanted to be
Wanted to be
