This song is for you, you know who you are

I won't embarrass you for callin' out your name

You're here every night, several night of drinks

Wearin' your superficial smile

You still wear the wedding band and you left hard work in hand

For a memory of a man who's chain and bound

Lord knows you need a man and an understandin' hand

Before you run completely out of love

You can't stay in love with a memory

You can't stay in love with a dream

Yet you've fallen in love with the picture on the wall

The sad part is that the picture is not of me

That cold December day, they took her man away

Never dreamin' of a gentle heart they've grown

Now she waits by the phone, she waits there all alone

But the only one who ever calls is me

Now I'm a prisoner of a slave to one way love

And I'd wish they let him go so I'd be free

Break this chains that bind and release this heart of mine

Before I run completely out of love

You can't stay in love with memory

You can't fall in love with a dream

Yet you've fallen in love with the picture on the wall

The sad part is that the picture is not of me
