- Today I Took Your Picture Down LyricsToday I took your picture down
And carried it away
Its meaning long forgotten now
Forgotten let it stay
Its welcome worn to wariness
Its thousand words all said
A keepsake keeps a love alive
But shrines are for the dead
Today I turned my back upon
The celebrated face
That stole a piece of every soul
That wandered through this place
That seemed so like a living thing
All conversation died
Or turned to face what must have been
The artist's joy and pride
Today I took your picture down
The coolly painted lips that spoke without a sound
The eyes that followed me around
Darin me to try and stare them down
Today I took your picture down
And every line intact
But something soft had gone from it
That never can come back
Some warm familiarity
Grown distant now and cold
Today I took your picture down
One of us had to go
And carried it away
Its meaning long forgotten now
Forgotten let it stay
Its welcome worn to wariness
Its thousand words all said
A keepsake keeps a love alive
But shrines are for the dead
Today I turned my back upon
The celebrated face
That stole a piece of every soul
That wandered through this place
That seemed so like a living thing
All conversation died
Or turned to face what must have been
Today I took your picture down
The coolly painted lips that spoke without a sound
The eyes that followed me around
Darin me to try and stare them down
Today I took your picture down
And every line intact
But something soft had gone from it
That never can come back
Some warm familiarity
Grown distant now and cold
Today I took your picture down
One of us had to go
