Picture of You - Boyzone

High school graduation, last family vacation Trip to Michigan last year My yearbook from seventh grade I tore out every page with me And threw it all away I know there were more good times than bad But it's easy to forget when I start looking back So I, know you wanna keep This memory, can you keep it in the back of your head? 'Cause when I'll, see it in a week I'll wish I was dead, I'll wish I took the picture of you instead Future holidays, the beach next summer break I don't need proof that I was there My big brother's wedding Hope I'm not regretting the dress That I decide to wear So I, know you wanna keep This memory, can you keep it in the back of your head? 'Cause when I'll, see it in a week I'll wish I was dead, I'll wish I took the picture of you instead Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh I'll wish I took the picture of you instead Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh I know there were more good times than bad But they keep on getting ruined by these photographs So I, know you wanna keep This memory, can you keep it in the back of your head? 'Cause when I'll, see it in a week I'll wish I was dead, I'll wish I took the picture of you instead Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh I'll wish I took the picture of you instead Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

When I'm feeling so afraid In a panic I can't escape You meet me When I wanna try and hide In a place no one else can find You're already there I see you in my mind You quiet all the lies Don't have to fear the night You are the name that my lips keep phrasing Every day that I'm feeling anxious I close my eyes and picture You are the face that I keep replaying Pushing away all the world's temptations I close my eyes and picture You You, You, You You, You, You I close my eyes and picture You When I wanna run away Cause I'm covered in so much shame You love me No matter what I've done I see you in my mind You quiet all the lies Don't have to fear the night You are the name that my lips keep phrasing Every day that I'm feeling anxious I close my eyes and picture You are the face that I keep replaying Pushing away all the world's temptations I close my eyes and picture you You, You, You You, You, You I close my eyes and picture You You, You, You You, You, You I close my eyes and picture You You, You, You You, You, You I close my eyes and picture You

You can't stop an avalanche As it races down the hill You can try to stop the seasons, girl But you know you never will And you can try to stop my dancin' feet But I just cannot stand still 'Cause the world keeps spinnin' 'Round and 'round And my heart's keeping time To the speed of sound I was lost 'til I heard the drums Then I found my way 'Cause you can't stop the beat Ever since this whole world began A woman found out if she shook it She could shake up a man And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it The best that I can today 'Cause you can't stop The motion of the ocean Or the sun in the sky You can wonder if you wanna But I never ask why And if you try to hold me down I'm gonna spit in your eye and say That you can't stop the beat You can't stop a river As it rushes to the sea You can try and stop the hands of time But you know it just can't be And if they try to stop us, Seaweed I'll call the N double A C P 'Cause the world keeps spinning 'Round and 'round And my heart's keeping time To the speed of sound I was lost 'til I heard the drums Then I found my way 'Cause you can't stop the beat Ever since we first saw the light A man and woman liked to shake it On a Saturday night And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it With all my might today 'Cause you can't stop The motion of the ocean Or the rain from above You can try to stop the paradise We're dreamin' of But you cannot stop the rhythm Of two hearts in love to stay 'Cause you can't stop the beat You can't stop my happiness 'Cause I like the way I am And you just can't stop my knife and fork When I see a Christmas ham So if you don't like the way I look Well, I just don't give a damn 'Cause the world keeps spinning 'Round and 'round And my heart's keeping time To the speed of sound I was lost 'til I heard the drums Then I found my way 'Cause you can't stop the beat Ever since this old world began A woman found out if she shook it She could shake up a man And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it The best that I can today 'Cause you can't stop The motion of the ocean Or the sun in the sky You can wonder if you wanna But I never ask why And if you try to hold me down I'm gonna spit in your eye and say That you can't stop the beat Oh, oh, oh You can't stop today (no) As it comes speeding down the track (ooh, child, yeah) Child, yesterday is history (be gone) And it's never coming back 'Cause tomorrow is a brand new day And it don't know white from black (yeah) 'Cause the world keeps spinning 'Round and 'round And my heart's keeping time To the speed of sound I was lost 'til I heard the drums Then I found my way 'Cause you can't stop the beat Ever since we first saw the light A man and woman liked to shake it On a Saturday night And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it With all my might today 'Cause you can't stop The motion of the ocean Or the rain from above They can try to stop this paradise We're dreaming of But you can't stop the rhythm Of two hearts in love to stay 'Cause you can't stop the beat Aah, aah, aah Aah, aah, aah Aah, aah, aah Ever since we first saw the sun A man and woman like to shake it When the day is done So we're gonna shake and shimmy it And have some fun today You can't stop The motion of the ocean Or the rain from above You can try to stop the paradise We're dreaming of But you cannot stop the rhythm Of two hearts in love to stay 'Cause you can't stop the beat You can't stop the beat You can't stop the beat You can't stop the beat You can't stop the beat

I grew up on the edge of a cornfield At the end of a long dirt road Carolina plow boy Ain't had a free summer since I was ten years old Mama made us pick our own switches So we could feel the sting of doin' wrong That set me straight on the road I'm still on I am who I am The product of a good woman loved by a real good man I've learned what I've learned By findin' the right way in all of my wrong turns I love what I love I ain't afraid to say it 'cause I'm damn sure man enough That's what you need to see to get a picture of me I grew up on gospel 'cause that's all my daddy'd listen to I found my soul in rock and roll When me and my first guitar were introduced Truth is I've only loved one woman And she'd have stayed, but I made her leave She's still hauntin' me in every song I sing I am who I am The product of a woman still loved by a stubborn man I've learned what I've learned By findin' the right way in all of my wrong turns I love what I love I ain't afraid to say it 'cause I'm damn sure man enough That's what you need to see to get a picture of me Like me or leave me Either way you know it the second you shake my hand I'm a long way from Jesus But I know He knows I'm doin' the best I can I am who I am The product of the good Lord lovin' a sinful man I've learned what I've learned By findin' the right way in all of my wrong turns I love what I love I ain't afraid to say it 'cause I'm damn sure man enough That's what you need to see That's what you need to see to get a picture of me
