Pictures In My Mind Lyrics

Took your clothes out of my closet

Wiped your number from my phone

I deleted your text messages

Hoping that you'd leave me alone.

I set fire to the letters

Words that I used to hold so dear

I thought that you were gone for good

I sat right down and grabbed a beer

That's when the thoughts came rushing back

Those things that I had put away

No matter how I try to hide it

I guess your memories here to stay

Because I can't burn the pictures in my mind

Scenes so bright and happy I just can't leave them behind

I lose myself each time I think about those better times

Because I can't burn the pictures in my mind

Thought that I would watch some TV

To get my mind away from you

But I couldn't stop from thinking

About the things you use to do

You'd lay your head upon my shoulder

And you'd close those pretty eyes

I would listen to you breathing

And contently you would sigh

I took a walk to clear my head

But everything along the way

Somehow reminded me of you

I guess your memories here to stay

Because I can't burn the pictures in my mind

Scenes so bright and happy I just can't leave them behind

I lose myself each time I think about those better times

Because I can't burn the pictures in my mind
