lyrics

I captured you
as you turned from me
I held you there
in the glass
a way to save you
where you’d never change
where I could join you
in the past

And the skyline is ours today
see the buildings rise from Elliott Bay
just a slip of a girl
who is looking away

And I keep you
ever near me
In memory

Caught from behind
mostly silhouette
against the water
silver blue
Your face is hidden
but your vision clear
of your favorite city
my favorite view

And the skyline is ours today
as the buildings climb from Elliott Bay
precious wisp of a girl
from a place faraway

There’s a kind of pleasure
in a photograph
with one observing
one observed
My eyes now aging
look over you
in a past still living
a time preserved
and when I miss you
you are never far
for in my longing
there is still you

And the skyline is ours today
let the buildings spire over Elliott Bay
fleeting ghost of a girl
free of life’s long decay
forever a moment
where you’ll always stay

And I will keep you
just before me
I can almost reach you
We’re only steps apart
In memory
