Still Life Lyrics

    There's a picture in the hall, I know
    And it's from a time when feelings showed
    Though I hold it close before my eyes
    My heart refuses to see

    Loving you could have been, oh so easy
    But there is something you don't understand
    Through the times when two were one completely
    There was another in this well laid plan

    This corridor seems to stretch for years ahead
    But patient hearts cannot match times steady tread
    Is this the threshold of a fantasy?
    Is there still life at all?

    Loving you could have been, oh so easy
    But there is something you don't understand
    Through the times when two were one completely
    There was another in this well laid plan
    Best laid plan of ours

    Watering the garden, some comfort for the twilight years
    Still, life never lingers, it marches past our veil of tears
    A moment's all we've got, to have and to hold
    Don't slip, don't blink, don't turn your head

    With a photographic memory
    I could live in a time that used to be
    Is this the threshold of a fantasy?
    Is there still life at all?

    Loving you could have been, oh so easy
    But there is something you don't understand
    Through the times when I was won completely
    There was another in this well laid plan

    Loving you could have been, oh so easy
    But there is something you don't understand
    There was a time when I was won completely
    Our emotions they got out of hand
