I wanna be part of your photograph:
The sepia of your past
I'll color it in when I'm home
You're a smiling picture in a picture frame
All the boys know your name
And the tune I hum when I'm thinking of you
It goes, "Oh, I love her so, I want her to know without me blundering it
That which is true to my heart,
When my heart's in my throat and the words won't come out"
All that to say,
Eva, Eva, Eva, I'm never gonna leave ya alone,
Though I am not home
Eva, Eva, Eva, my negative will feed ya itss own
Picture of the world I know,
The world I know is so...
I could occupy a week or so
Telling you and everyone we know
Just why I intend to marry you
You may not have been impressed by me
You're young, you're beautiful, free
I hope someday to hear you sing,
"Oh, I love him so
I want him to know without me blundering it
That which is true to my heart, when my heart's in my throat and the words won't come out"
All that to say,
Eva, Eva, Eva, I'm never gonna leave ya alone,
Though I am not home
Eva, Eva, Eva, my negative will feed ya its own
Picture of the world I know,
The world I know is so beautiful and it's terrible
You are beautiful
You are beautiful
