In the corner of my heart
A faded photo lies
On the mantel it rests
Under tears and distant cries
It's a memory of joy
A story of days long gone
But in my soul
It still lingers on
In black and white
A moment frozen in time
Faces so radiant
With love and hope intertwined
Through the trials and tribulations
We stood so tall
But like the photo
We've started to fall
Oh
The years have passed by
Like whispers in the wind
But the memories remain
A testament of where we've been
Though the colors may fade
The love will never die
In my heart
This photo will forever lie
Oh
The laughter and the tears
Etched in every line
The smiles in that photo
They used to be mine
But life has a way of changing
Of turning grace to rust
And now all I have are these memories in the dust
Now the photo on the mantel tells a different tale
A reminder of the times when we used to prevail
But through the darkness and the pain
I'll find my light
Hold onto hope
In the midst of this fight
Though the photo may fade
The love remains strong
In the depths of my soul
Where memories belong
Every tear that falls will water these roots
And every note I sing will break through the truth
