lyrics
Focus past the frame to the picture
You're the woman
I'm the man
A house and a dog and a yard
A reference blueprint
A lifetime plan
If only we could have the picket fence
If only you would wear that dress
If only we could smile a little more
If only you would hide your mess
A thousand bitter words to shape your mind
A thousand winter suns to chill your heart
A thousand little lies to keep you blind
A thousand little songs, a thousand bitter songs
Why won't the dog fetch my slippers
Why won't they sell their car
Why can't I shake the feeling
That we may have gone too far
There is no room to change the picture
There are no poems from a perfect bride
Be careful that your makeup doesn't run
When you cry, when you hide
A thousand bitter words to shape your mind
A thousand winter suns to chill your heart
A thousand little lies to keep you blind
A thousand little songs, a thousand bitter songs
A picture can be worth a thousand lies
But in the end, a man is only one
He didn't come to save a picture
He's not here to make it true
A thousand words is too many
When all you need is two
