Every day I wake up to your picture
Open up my eyes and there's still you
In the very corner I first placed you

The very same expression
That lights up all of my room


Though the colors maybe somewhat faded
The smile has almost vanished from your face
As you disappear I re-invent you

From my imagination
You'll never be erased


There is no way to bargain with the future
In the end there are no guarantees... oh no
Even if you're gone I'll always find you

Right here where I left you
Smiling back at me


(chorus)
Every star has a season, a moment, a reason to be
We may watch with regret as they flicker then die

But at least for one second we bathed in the light
of their passing
The memory stil lasting

Through the years and the distance your image remains
LIke the first day I saw you, you'll never be changed
As a token you left me your picture


Every day I wake up to your picture
I fashion you a different attitude

Try to visualize the things you're doing
Not in desperation
Just to feel a part of you


There is no way to bargain with the future
What we have in store we can't for see... oh no

Even if you're gone I'll always find you
Right here where I left you
Smiling back at me


(Repeat chorus)
