Old Pictures Lyrics

VERSE 1:
Heres a little girl playin dress up
Somewhere under all that lace
Standin in her mamas high heeled shoes
With a lipstick covered face
And heres a little boy on a pony
Hes a cowboy all the way
He used to pull my hair and make me mad
the saturday matinee
Oh, Who'd a thought that Id lose my heart
To the same little boy someday
CHORUS:
Lookin through my old pictures
Faded photographs
Some of them bring me close to tears
Others make me laugh
Old memories seem to come alive
And open up the past again
And let me dream inside
Heres brother with his first automobile
Thought hed washed the paint away
He took a job that took him west
Hes doing very well
We dont see much of brother these days
Oh, And this is my favorite of my papa
Hes dressed up in his sunday suit
A wide brimmed hat, a watch on a chain
Well, Im gonna tell you the truth
Its a picture of a downright handsome man
Caught in the prime of his youth
CHORUS:
Lookin through my old pictures
Faded photographs
Some of them bring me close to tears
Others make me laugh
Old memories seem to come alive
And open up the past again
And let me dream inside
Mmmm they open up the past again and let me dream inside
