Photograph Lyrics - Composer - Antonio Carlos Jobim

I found this photograph 

Underneath the broken picture glass 

Tender face of black and white 

Beautiful, a haunting sight 

Looked into an angel's smile 

Captivated all the while 

From the hair and clothes she wore 

I'd place her in between the wars 

Was she willing when she sat 

And posed the pretty photograph? 

Save her flowering and fair 

The days to come, the days to share 

A big smile for the camera 

How did she know? 

The moment could be lost forever 

Forever more

I found this photograph 

Stashed between the old joist walls 

In a place where time is lost 

Lost behind, where all things fall 

Broken books and calendars 

Letters script in careful hand 

Music too, a standard tune by 

Some forgotten big brass band 

From the threshhold what's to see 

Of our brave new century? 

The television's just a dream 

The radio, the silver screen 

A big smile for the camera 

How did she know? 

The moment could be lost forever 

Forever more 

Photos 

Was her childhood filled with rhymes 

Stolen hooks, impassioned crimes? 

Was she innocent or blind 

To the cruelty of her time? 

Was she fearful in her day 

Was she hopeful, did she pray? 

Were there skeletons inside 

Family secrets, sworn to hide? 

Did she feel the heat that stirs 

The fall from grace of wayward girls? 

Was she tempted to pretend 

The love and laughter, 'til the end?
