Those 3x5s

VERSE:
On the coffee table by that new, used couch
She must've had for 20 years now
There’s a photo album full of snapshots
Of the good ole days and innocence lost


VERSE:
Kinda like tiny time machines
They get me remembering
about another time and place
A window into yesterday


CHORUS:
Mama used to have
A camera in her hand
When I was younger
I didn’t understand
Saying cheese on the count of 3
Never made much sense to me
Thought what a waste of time, at the time
Now I could fit a thousand words inside
Those 3 by 5s


VERSE:
Birthdays and Christmases
Summertime when I was a kid
Everywhere we ever went
She made sure we’d never forget


VERSE:
Looking at em after all these years
Brings a smile and a couple tears
Sentimental and bittersweet
Who I am now seeing who I used to be
When


CHORUS:
Mama used to have
A camera in her hand
When I was younger
I didn’t understand
Saying cheese on the count of 3
Never made much sense to me
Thought what a waste of time, at the time
Now I could fit a thousand words inside
Those 3 by 5s


VERSE:
On the coffee table by that new, used couch
She must've had for 20 years now
There’s a photo album full of snapshots
Of the good ole days and innocence lost
