A Collection Lyrics

    (music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth)

    I've got a photograph
    I took a picture of you
    I took your photograph in front of my favourite view

    You play the part so well
    You look so sure and free
    No one could ever tell that you belong to me

    And 'cause you lie so well
    I've got to pin you down
    Under lock and key
    So you will always be in my in my collection

    If you can't speak you can't lie
    If you can't run and you can't hide
    I know a place you can't die
    So no one lives inside
    My collection

    I want to capture you
    I want to immortalize
    The way you play with your hair
    The way you flash your eyes

    I taste the air you breathe
    I taste the food you eat
    I keep your nails and hair
    And some of the clothes you wear

    If you can't speak you can't lie
    If you can't run you can't hide
    And if you're dead you can't die
    So no one lives inside
    No one lives inside
    My collection

    I've got some photographs
    I'd like to show them to you
    'though you don't know the girls
    You'll recognize the view...
