Pansy Division - Wish I'd taken pictures lyrics

Didn't think he'd splip so soon

Thought time was on our side

But cynical turned bitchy

Clever turned to snide

Iwon't miss his sullen poses

Iwon't miss his dour veneer

But i wish i'd taken pictures

Cause his beautiful face ain't here

Met up with a new guy

With alabaster skin

Turned out to be an alabastard

Broke it off with him

His features were so striking

Long lashes, dark brown curls

But i wish i'd taken pictures

Cause he's long gone from my world

Met a lovely goth boy

Way into 4AD

Precious, frail and sensitive

Took himself too seriously

Always lighting candles

Made his bed an altar

But i wish i´d taken pictures

Because our thing quickly faltered

Finally bought a camera

After years of delay

Thought memory would be enough

But i found out too late

So let's be realistic

The odds are this won't last

Now i'm taking pictures

So i'll never forget your beautiful ass
