In this tarnished and old photograph 
we race through a field of green 
There was nothin' we held on our backs 
We were young we were wild and free 
When we got to bridge 
where you almost passed out from the sweltering heat 
I ran back to house 
To grab you some water and somethin' to eat 

And your skin is glistened in the sun 
And what shown on the river reflections of love 
And our smoke from our cigarettes 
twirled through the wind 
We twirled through the air and almost off the bridge 
But you kept me from falling and I kept laughin' 
the bird in the trees kept on ratt a tatt tattin' 
the water below us it shimmered like gold 
And I swore in that moment with you I'd grow old 

And still to this day when I study your smile 
I arrive at that bridge where I'll rest for a while 
And chat with the birds 
From that river of gold of mystery freedom and memory's old 

In this optimistic and fresh photograph 
We'll stand and hold hands at the start of a path 
And we'll look to each other and tell one another 
I love you, you wont' walk alone.
