Take a photograph
And settle down
Two and two, not as hard as it looks
Better not to burn those books
You're not travelling on a beam of light
And you're not sitting around under house arrest
Until you change your mind
Not a blink
Not a breath
Not a sign (x4)
Take a photograph
To remind you
Of the things you know you will one day forget
Take a side effect
As a measure of your progress
Take what you give
And give what you take
And as you walk with your breath two feet in front of you in the cold
Take a photograph, to have and to hold (x2)
Take a photograph
