Take A Picture Of This

　　Take A Picture Of This - Don Henley

　　A long long time ago

　　when we were young and pretty,

　　we ruled the world,

　　we stopped the time,

　　we knew it all, we owned this city

　　Running with the crowd,

　　carefree and proud I heard somebody say

　　Take a picture of this

　　Take a picture of this

　　The years went rushing by,

　　in the twinkling of an eye,

　　we know with the changes.

　　Our life we knew was gone,

　　Our friends had all moved on,

　　time rearranges.

　　But on our wedding day,

　　they all came back to say,

　　congratulations

　　Take a picture of this

　　Take a picture of this

　　Then we raised a family of our own,

　　we were so happy baby

　　But now those kids have grown and gone.

　　I gave it everything I had,

　　thru the good times and the bad

　　But now I'm down here on the floor,

　　cause I don't know you anymore.

　　Yeah that's a suitcase;

　　yeah that's a ticket for a plane

　　There's no one here to talk to,

　　no reason to remain

　　When you spend all your time living in the past

　　With all those pictures that you took,

　　here's one more for the book

　　Take a picture of this,

　　this is me leaving

　　Take a picture of this,

　　this me walking away

　　Take a picture of this,

　　take a picture of this

　　Take a picture of this.
