The Low Mice - Memory Fades (Save for a Picture) Lyrics

In the Blue Moose Café
At the little table by the stairs
A birthday together
A day still happening somewhere
A painting in blue
Frames a photograph of you
And memory fades
Save for a picture
An abstract nightscape with field of blue
Van Gogh-like stars above your hair
Frames your face
Behind you on the wall there
Your smile captured in time
Your eyes alight
We're together in a moment
By the banks of the Delaware
So happy
Pushing back the tide
And forgetting time
A painting in blue
Frames a photograph of you
And memory fades
Save for a picture
It's like it didn't happen
With your memory fading away
Where is the day
When you remember me
By the banks of the Delaware
A still life still happening somewhere
We were so happy
Pushing back the tide
Forgetting time
It's like it didn't happen
With your memory fading away
