Laymen Terms Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Until I see your face in a photograph
With your smile.
And nothing's left.
Well, I don't know.
I've got thirty pages of photographs with your smile.
Every time I try to write,
Because all I can think about is the time we had
Between you and I.
(just can't seem to get away from) I just can't seem to get away from you.
I just can't seem to get away from...
And nothing's left.
Well, I don't know.
I've got thirty pages of photographs with your smile.
And every time I try to write,
It never seems to come out fine.
Because all I can think about is the time we had
Between you and I.
(just can't seem to get away from) I just can't seem to get away from you.
I just can't seem to get away from...
(out, let it out)
I just can't seem to get away from you.
Photographs, letters about,
Colorful nights, cigarettes and life.
So I let it out, let it out with you.
Nothing's left. Well I don't know.
I've got two more shots to go till I
Forget your smile.
And every time that I think I'm over us,
Pictures of you show up and photographs.
I just can't seem to get away from your smile.
(I just can't seem to get away from you.)
I just can't seem to get away from your smile.
(I just can't seem to get away from you.)
I just can't seem to get away from your smile.
(I'll be fine for a while, till I see your face in a photograph with your smile.)
(I just can't seem to get away from you.)
I just can't seem to get away from your smile.
From your smile.
