A Million Pictures
King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson
Many lines
Many moments
Many times
Cast a million pictures in my mind
You might say that it's no joke
I can prove it here and go
It's not easy feelin' so alone
I wish I could be
The way you pictured me
And sometimes it's hard
But only if you could see.
It makes no difference
What is wrong and what is right
It makes no difference
'Cause I'm here with you tonight.
I can feel your heart beat
It's the reason that I can't sleep
And I pray that this night's
Not the last
Everything's okay, things seem alright
I lie awake and hold you tight
Can't, faded dusk breaks all too fast
I wish I could be
The way you pictured me
And sometimes it's hard
But only if you could see.(Yeah)
It makes no difference
What is wrong and what is right
It makes no difference
'Cause I'm here with you tonight.
I wish that I could have
A picture of my own
A scene of happiness
Long after you're gone.
It makes no difference
What is wrong and what is right
It makes no difference
'Cause I'm here with you tonight.
It makes no difference
What is wrong and what is right
It makes no difference
'Cause I'm here with you tonight.
