lyrics

I don't think you need any advice from me.
Everything you need you've got already (right here).
You don't need a camera.
There's a better device inside you.
It's called your soul. It keeps taking pictures of love:
The way the breeze feels on your skin, the way the sun comes up.
What more do you need?

And if your house burns down or floods to the ceiling, you're okay.
You still know what love looks like (right here).
If your stomach growls a lot, if you lose your sense of hearing, you're okay.
You still know what love sounds like. You've still got pictures of love.
The way a three-year-old laughs, the way a tree grows up.
What more do you need?

And if you lose your beauty, if you cannot climb your stairs —
you're okay. You've still got your pictures (right here).
If you wake up old with all your dear friends gone,
you've still got pictures that prove you're part of something bigger.
Pictures of love: the touch of a hand that feels like home and infinite stars above.
What more do you need?
