I've Never Been Happier Than I Was In That Picture

(专辑： No One's Waiting Up For Me Tonight - 2021)

Desert in August
Easel and a bowl of oranges
Head cocked in your ivory bralette
I felt alive
Endless & bottomless
Everything I ever wanted
Could almost touch it through the turbulence
Hand in the hive

War correspondence
Strawberry scripture
I've never been happier
Than I was in that picture

Heat wave in Brooklyn
Shoeless, waltzing through the fountain
Kissing for the camera, melting
Stuck side to side
Floored by my fortune
I had finally found the person
I never cared what we were doing
I was full
I was fine

My Alexandra
Your lion's been injured
I've never been happier
Than I was

Carousel memory
Cruelly defined
Coconut, sandalwood
Swimming at night
Curls & your flower dress
Smiled & cried
"I got my birthday wish:
You, every time."

One way to freedom:
Thank and forgive her
Cause you'd never been happier than you were in that picture

It happened
It's over
I love ya
I miss ya
And I'll never be happier than I was in that picture
And I'll never be happier than I was
