Outside a small café
Painting pictures for her pay
A starving artist
Meets a hungry heart
Lovers at first sight
I can't forget those Paris nights
Like the colors on her canvas
Every moment framed in time
I still dream she's mine
If I could only turn back time
She'd be here with me
My picture perfect memories
Her portrait's on my wall
Winter, summer, spring and fall
Seasons change, so did we
My picture perfect memories
Picture perfect memories
Postcards from overseas
Still arrive
Haunting me
Those water colored dreams of yesterday
I read she's doing well
All her paintings sell
But the patron of her heart
Has never bid farewell
I still dream she's mine
If I could only turn back time
She'd be here with me
My picture perfect memories
Her portrait's on my wall
Winter, summer, spring and fall
Seasons change, so did we
My picture perfect memories
Picture perfect memories
I got her letter just yesterday
A picture of a little boy in that same café
He sure looks a lot like me in every way
Well I'm going to buy two tickets and bring back yesterday
I still dream she's mine
If I could only turn back time
She'd be here with me
My picture perfect memories
Her portrait's on my wall
Winter, summer, spring and fall
Seasons change, so did we
My picture perfect memories
Picture perfect memories
