He sat down next to the window   By the TV at my bar,   He ordered coke and whiskey   And put something in my jar,   An old black and white photograph   He'd hung on to all his life,   And his story broke my heart he said   "She was gonna be my wife".      Chorus   "Hey Mister,    Please take this picture   'Cause I don't want to miss her   Anymore.   Though the corners are tatered and torn   She's still the one that I adore   Mister please take this   'Cause I don't want miss her   Anymore"      He told me how the met   How at first sight the fell in love.   He didn't have to say what happened,   The picture told me what it was.   Her words in blue there on the back   Had all but been erased,   From years of tears and promises   Love lost but not replaced.      Chorus   "Hey Mister,   Please take this picture   'Cause I don't want to miss her   Anymore.   Though the corners are tatered and torn   She's still the one that I adore.   Mister please take this    'Cause I don't want to miss her    Anymore"      I put his picture in a drawer   With all the other ones like her.   I get a different one every now and then,   And I hear the same old words      "Hey Mister,   Please take this picture   'Cause I don't want to miss her   Anymore"
