I been thinkin about the time before   Every time you leave,   And the pictures that keep playin in my mind;   I declare, I swear, I cant compare,   Simple things we shared,   To the pictures that keep playing in my mind--   I been thinkin about the time before   Every time you leave,   And the pictures that keep playin in my mind;   And every time you smile that smile,    A smile I wont forget   I’ve pictures of you playin in my mind.   Yeah I been thinkin about the time before   Every time you leave,   And the pictures that keep playin in my mind;   I can guarantee to some degree   Everything you see   Are just pictures that you playin in my mind   I been thinkin about the time before   Every time you leave,   And the pictures that keep playin in my mind;   I declare, I swear, I can’t compare;   Simple things we’ve shared   And the pictures of you playing in my mind.
