Pictures of You

The person on the wall may look like me,
Well, you're close, at least it's who I wanna be,
But if we're gonna tell the truth,
They're all pictures of you.

REFRAIN
Yeah, they're pictures of you,
And who you make me,
The best things I do,
Aren't really me.
Whenever I do something worth a photo or two,
They're really just pictures of you.

That's from my graduation a couple years ago,
And there's when I won a trophy or so,
There's a picture from helping the neighbors with work they couldn't do,
They're all pictures of you.
REFRAIN

That's from the surgery I never wanted,
But you convinced me that I needed,
And that's me on our first date- wait, that's not true;
They're all pictures of you.
REFRAIN

There's me holding a wedding boquet,
And there, holding our first baby.
Oh, and me standing with you by your friend's grave,
They're all pictures of you.
REFRAIN

There I held you when you cried that you 'weren't good enough,'
Just 'cause life had been treating you rough.
Well, all the things I said that made you want to live it through,
They're all pictures of you.
REFRAIN
