Allen, Mack, Myers, & Moore - Picture

It's a dusty old memory 'bout kids in a yard
An old man on a porch with a Ball mason jar
Whittling and chewing on Doublemint gum
Well he'd always ask us if we wanted some

There's a price that you pay for growing too fast
A lifetime of livin' is gone in a flash
The best things in life are the things that don't last
Man I wish I had a picture of that

It's a boy and a girl at the high school dance
Should've told her I loved her but she never got the chance
Well I heard that she's living down in North Caroline
I have trouble remembering her face sometimes

There's a price that you pay for growing too fast
A lifetime of livin' is gone in a flash
The best things in life are the things that don't last
Man I wish I had a picture of that

Oh, you'll never get in all in a frame
It's never gonna look the same
But the things that you'll remember
If you only had a picture

It's the first couple steps of my first born son
It's the smile on his face when he hits that home run
It's the hug that we'll share on his wedding day
It's a picture for every I love you we say

There's a price that you pay for growing too fast
A lifetime of livin' is gone in a flash
The best things in life are the things that don't last
Man I wish I had a picture of that

There's a price that you pay for growing too fast
A lifetime of livin' is gone in a flash
The best things in life are the things that don't last
Man I wish I had a picture of that
