"Picture" lyrics - EDDIE VEDDER

[Intro: Elton John]
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1: Elton John, Eddie Vedder]
A picture tells a thousand words, some of them were mine
Combing through the evidence, afraid of what we'll find
The sun could lift us up should this thunder ever stop
There's no over, there's no under, there's no shame

[Chorus: Elton John and Eddie Vedder]
Picture of love, we were a picture of love
The measure of our years so deep and wide
Picture of hope, we were a picture of hope
Standing close together side-by-side

[Verse 2: Elton John, Eddie Vedder]
If we let the darkness of these times break us
Oh-oh-oh, that would truly be the crime
Did I 'cause the sadness in your eyes?
Oh, allow me, please, to ease your troubled mind

[Chorus: Elton John and Eddie Vedder]
Picture of love, we were a picture of love
The measure of our years so deep and wide
Picture of hope, we were a picture of hope
Standing close together side-by-side

[Bridge: Elton John and Eddie Vedder]
Strangers, they walk past with eyes of one-way glass
Thinking what's hidden will someday pass
Somewhere down below, the will to not let go
Our hearts fit together 'cause they're broken

[Chorus: Elton John and Eddie Vedder]
Picture of love, we were a picture of love
The measure of our years so deep and wide
Picture of hope, we were a picture of hope
Standing close together side-by-side, yeah
Picture of love, we were a picture of love
The measure of our years so deep and wide
Picture of hope, we were a picture of hope
Standing close together side-by-side, yeah
