Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's not the way you look, it's not the way that you smile
Although there's something to them
It's not the way you have your hair, it's not the certain style
But it could be that perfume
[Verse 2]
If I had a photograph of you
Or something to remind me
I wouldn't spend my life just wishing
[Verse 3]
It's not the make-up and it's not the way that you dance
And it's not the evening sky
It's more the way your eyes are laughing as they glance
Across the great divide
[Verse 4]
If I had a photograph of you
Or something to remind me
I wouldn't spend my life just wishing
[Verse 5]
If it's not the things you say, if it's not the things you do
Well, it must be something more
And if I feel this way for so long, tell me is all for nothing
Would you still walk out the door?
[Verse 6]
If I had a photograph of you
Or something to remind me
I wouldn't spend my life just wishing
Written by: A. Score, F. Maudsley, M. Score, Paul Reynolds
