[Verse 1]
Oh, the picture on the wall
Oh, the picture on the wall
Was staring at me so
Just when I was assured
That love could be cured
Oh, the picture on the wall said no

[Verse 2]
I was not surprised at all
When the picture on the wall
Just wouldn't let me go
I was locked in a gaze
That held me amazed
At all the picture on the wall could show

[Bridge]
So I lifted up my heart
And put my hand upon the picture
Turning it round, away out of sight
But I still could see it staring at me
’Til I ran out into the night

[Verse 3]
A voice that seemed to call
From the picture on the wall
Repеated on and on:
"Fool, to think love would let you еver forget"
And I stumbled back to find
'Twas only in my mind
And the picture on the wall
Had not been there at all
For the picture on the wall was gone
