The Seeds - A Faded Picture lyrics

Oh, I want to go back See my baby's face Oh, I want to go back To my happy place That disappeared from view Such a long, long time ago It's a faded picture Hanging on my wall It's a faded picture Isn't there at all It's only there When I closed my eyes And started to cry Over you It's a faded picture I can see it Through colored tears It's a faded picture Bringing back My lost years It's only there On rainy days When tears have dried And rainbows started to appear Oh, I want to go back When I was six years old Just lying in the gra** Seeing all the clouds Building castles in the sky See all the animals go round And hear music coming From a merry-go-round But it's a faded picture Fade away on me So hard to see It's a faded picture A picture of my childhood A faded a picture I'd go back if I could It's only there When I hear children laugh Sit and play On a bright sunny day All so gay It's a faded picture So hard to see When you're cryin' It's hard to see So hard to see Just like a painting This feeling is falling My heart's buried Right in the ground A masterpiece Of hearts that've gone Lost for all time Gone from me My faded picture So hard, so hard So hard to see My faded picture Fade away from me I couldn't bring it back If I had tried I couldn't bring it back If I'd died My faded pictures Fade away On me So hard, so hard So hard, so hard To see my faded picture Fade away on me
