PICTURE
(Bolter/Bell)

I saw a man and a woman
On the corner where the highway meets the road
There was a child she was holding,
Their destiny was on a sign he showed

And I watched them
As I waited on the light to change
I hit the locks to make sure I was safe
They looked at me just before I drove away
And I drove away in a flash

Is that the picture, they'll remember me for?
Is that what I'll see when I'm standing at the door?

I saw my child as she stood there
Begging for my eyes
In her hands was a treasure,
The ones you get one chance to find

"In a minute!"
I told her as the phone rang
Caught up in a world of soon-forgotten-deals
And I answered it, just before she walked away
And she walked away in a flash

So many people that we all take for granted
So few of them that we ever really see
So many questions, but the only one I can think of
Is what is in it for me?

Well, I died with my eyes hoping,
To hear my heart make a sound
But all the lines never spoken,
Were placed in the lost and found

And in the morning,
My face was in the paper
Some old photograph of a young man in the past
Just another soul who died on a Monday
And I died in a flash
