Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Take a picture to remember this by

You'll never hold all the details in your mind

Fillin' your head with superfluous facts

Pushin' out what you're never gettin' back

[Verse 2]

'Cause all we've got is a version of the truth

A recollection that is often misconstrued

Sergeant Pepper with the faces of friends

But the names all elude you in the end

[Chorus]

Kiss me just this one last time

Tell me that you once were mine

[Verse 3]

Take a picture to remember me by

To show everybody who you left behind

The near miss that almost shot you out the blue

And I was a city you were only passing through

[Verse 4]

And all that's left is a version of events

Favorably framed for the sake of self-defense

We barely notice as the pages disappear

Floating off into another year

[Chorus]

Kiss me just this one last time

Tell me that you once were mine

Kiss me just this one last time

Show me that your love was mine

[Instrumental]

Kiss me just this one last time

Tell me that you once were mine

Kiss me just this one last time

Show me that your love was mine
