I've got an fifteen-hole picture frame. none of the photos show my pains or shame
Looking there at my first forty years, you'd think I never shed any tears

On the walls only good memories you will find, I keep all the bad pictures in my mind
I have a lot of albums, you can bet, but I foolishly thought some I’d better forget

Yet while I gaze at your winsome smile, in my mind I recall the long, hard miles
For every victory that was so sweet, I remember the bitter tears of defeat

So I hang those pictures of our bygone years and wipe the glass with kisses and tears
I’m mounting hopes, baby, that are soon on their way, you and I together one glorious day

...just bein' Bluesy
