Look at me, eighteen an' tanned
Behind the wheel o' my old van
"Hotel California" turned up loud
No air-conditioning, windows down
Look at you smilin' at me
Don't know when I've been as happy
As that weekend out in Joshua Tree
When I got down on my knees
An' I like lookin' at old photographs
Reminds me o' the way we've always made each other laugh

Pictures o' a life we've made together
Memories o' a love that just gets better with time
So many good times
There's no way I will forget
They've got me thinkin' 'bout pictures
We haven't taken yet

Next year let's go to Disneyworld
Can't wait to see our little girl
Hold hands with Mickey Mouse
Chocolate ice-cream on her mouth
An' you'll get all upset when I
Snap you comin' off that ride
With that pasty white look:
You won't put that one in our book
An' I like lookin' back at all the things we've done
But I love dreamin' o' the years yet to come
Pictures o' a life we've made together
Memories o' a love that just gets better with time
So many good times
There's no way I will forget
Not now I'm thinkin' 'bout pictures
We haven't taken yet

Someday I'll walk our daughter down the aisle
An' every tear an' every smile
Will be captured in color.....

Pictures o' a life we've made together
Memories o' a love that just gets better with time
So many good times
There's no way I will forget
They got us thinkin' 'bout pictures
We haven't taken yet

Can you see us on that front porch swing?
All the joy it's gonna bring
To hear our grandkids laugh
As they go thumbin' thro' our past:
