Photo Of Yore lyrics

I heard a record
Oh, I heard a record in school
There was a lyric
Oh, there was a lyric I knew
I didn't see it
No, I didn't see it was you.

I heard a poem
Oh, I heard a poem I wrote
And all the letters
Oh, and all the letters I spoke
They didn't sound like
No, they didn't sound like a joke.

Ooh...

You'll keep on running for the things you wanted,
You'll keep on knowing all the things you didn't,
You'll keep on wondering why it didn't happen.

I saw a photo
Oh, I saw a photo of yore
I hadn't seen it
No, I hadn't seen it before
But I remember
Oh, but I remember for sure.

I'll buy the record
Oh, I'll buy the record I miss
I'll write a lyric
Oh, I'll write a lyric like this
And this is just what
Oh, and this is just what it is.

Ooh...

[Chorus]
You'll keep on running for the things you wanted,
You'll keep on knowing all the things you didn't,
You'll keep on wondering why it didn't happen,
You'll keep on wishing that it really hadn't.

You'll keep on running for the things you wanted,
You'll keep on knowing all the things you didn't,

You'll keep on running for the things you wanted,
(You'll keep on knowing all the things you didn't)
You'll keep on running for the things you wanted,
(You'll keep on wondering why it didn't happen)
(You'll keep on running for the things you wanted)
You'll keep on wishing that it really hadn't.

[Chorus]
You'll keep on running for the things...

I think you have it
Oh, I think you have it at last
You've lived your life in
Oh, you've lived your life in a glass
And now you see it
Oh, and now you see a contrast.

I wish you see it
Oh, I wish you see what I see
And you are keeping
Oh, and you are keeping the tree
There is a willow
Oh, there is a willow in me.

Oooh...

[Chorus]
You'll keep on running for the things...

You'll keep on running for the things you wanted,
You'll keep on running for the things you wanted...
