Lyrics
Residue by Carol Fieldhouse and Gary Bridle
Residue, what’s left to me
Unwanted books of poetry
Birthday cards stored in a drawer
From all those years that went before
This photograph of you, its residue
Sunny days on South End pier
The photo booth, we disappeared
Skimming stones our faces beamed
Sunlight on our carefree scene
These photographs so true, they’re residue
Always made me smile
With your morning hair tumblin’ there
And your soft grey eyes
Still smiling there, no leaving cares
Residue, there’s just a trace
An empty chair, a familiar place
Back then I never knew quite how
To say the things I’m saying now
To a photograph of you, it’s residue
Always made me smile
With your morning hair tumblin’ there
And your soft grey eyes
Still smiling there, no leaving cares
Residue, what’s left to me
Unwanted books of poetry
Birthday cards left in a drawer
From all those years that went before
This photograph of you, its residue
