Wishing (If I Had a Photograph of You) - Nouvelle Vague, Silja

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 that certain style

Though it could be that with you

If I had a photograph of you

It’s something to remind me

I wouldn’t spend my life just wishing

It’s not the make-up

And it’s not the way that you dance

It’s not the evening sky

It’s more the way your eyes are laughing

As they glance

Across the great divide

If I had a photograph of you

It’s something to remind me

I wouldn’t spend my life just wishing

It’s not the things you say

It’s not the things that you do

It must be something more

And if I feel this way for so long

Tell me is it all for nothing

Just don’t walk out the door

If I had a photograph of you

It’s something to remind me

I wouldn’t spend my life just wishing

Yeah, just wishing, yeah

Just a photograph of you

To remind me
