The south of France is surely nice this time of year
In all my life I've never seen a sky so clear
I took a photograph, but something's missing here
The wine is nice, but it's so bittersweet
Cause I'm just picturing you inside this picture with me
I took a snapshot here but it's still incomplete
Cause I'm just picturing you inside this picture with me
The Tower of Pisa's leaning high above us all
It looks as drunk as me, like it's about to fall
I put my bottle down and light up a Pall Mall
The Van Gogh sky and the Monet sea
And I'm just picturing you inside this picture with me
Oh Michelangelo, Leonardo DaVinci
Paint me a picture of you inside this picture with me
Oh the days are getting long and the nights keep dragging on
With you gone, with you gone...
I roamed the countryside and saw the Colosseum
I am in ruins, baby, wish that you could see 'em
Asked for directions and they told me, "Carpe Diem"
It's beautiful here on these cobblestone streets
But I'm just picturing you inside this picture with me
It's like a postcard dream, but it's still incomplete
Cause I'm just picturing you inside this picture with me
