Keith Whitley - I Get The Picture lyrics

The moving van is waitin' for the rain to stop Your agent put a sign up in the yard I wondered, was there anything that you'd forgot I guess that goodbye's got to be this hard One last look around the rooms that we shared I knew I couldn't stay here by myself I saw a box and wondered why you'd left it out Right there on the bedroom closet shelf Faded yellow photos of a boy and girl Smiling in the blazing Texas sun It must have been the year before your daddy died He tried to warn me then this day would come I get the picture Though the love has gone away I get the picture Though your memory will fade I get the picture Wasn't that the guy you told me you forgot Oh, what's his name who never made you laugh But I never made you smile the way you're smilin' here By his side in this faded photograph Last night when I met you at your lawyer's house I wondered 'bout the guy who dropped you off I guess I probably never placed his smiling face If you hadn't left behind this box I get the picture Though the love has gone away I get the picture Though your memory will fade I get the picture I get the picture
