Picture Postcard Memories copyright 2015 Derek McCorkell

Looking through our faded photographs,
My mind slips away,
to you & I watching
The night turn to day.
Then walking slowly hand in hand,
As the sun lights up the sky,
The cares of this world
Just passing us by.

Picture Postcard Memories,
But not the here & now,
Sitting here in our favorite place,
Slipping back in time, somehow.
But time it's toll has taken,
And I cry a lonely tear,
They're Picture Postcard Memories.
How I wish you were here.

Here we are at your garden gate,
As I picked you up ,on our first date,
Here we're walking down the aisle,
We looked so young,
See how much we smiled.
Remember this, our honeymoon,
Summer madness over way too soon,
How I wish I could turn back time,
To those happy days,
Wouldn't that be fine .

Picture Postcard Memories,
But not the here & now,
Sitting here in our favorite place,
Slipping back in time, somehow.
But time it's toll has taken,
And I cry a lonely tear,
They're Picture Postcard Memories.
How I wish you were here.

Yes time it's toll has taken,
And I cry a lonely tear,
They're only Picture Postcard Memories,
I wish you were here.

They're only Picture Postcard Memories.
How I wish you were here.

Wish you were here
