THE REVIVALISTS
"Pretty Photograph"
(Rob Ingraham / David Shaw)

We broke out the hounds
Track them down, track them down, track them down
And lock them up pound for pound
Eye for an eye I've come to know
In the city the city of sound

Timeless is how long you'll sing
When you're not with the one in your dreams
She sends her love for me to see
A pretty photograph to my telephone screen

Well I really don't know what time will tell
I never grew up I've never been in jail
I've seen the inside of a cinder block cell
With eyes rolled back in head oh well
It's been a long time coming I'm proud to say
I know what it takes to greet a sunny day
You keep on pushing those clouds away
While your knocking on wood every goddamn day

Timeless is how long you'll sing
When you're not with the one in your dreams
She sends her love for me to see
A pretty photograph to my telephone screen

I really don't know what time will tell
I never grew up I've never been in jail
I've seen the inside of a cinder block cell
With eyes rolled back in head oh well
It's been a long time coming, I'm proud to say
I know what it takes to greet a sunny day
You keep on pushing those clouds away
While your knocking on wood every god damn day
Timeless is
