A Collection Lyrics - Marillion

I've got a photograph 

I took a picture of you 

I took your picture in front of my favorite 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 collection 

If you can't speak you can't lie 

If you can't run, 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
