Print Of Love

                            Where's the rest in an old dream

                            that's startin to fade.

                            What's so pleasin bout good love

                            if two ain't there to play.

                            Well it must be a fool's time

                            that gets lost in the game

                            with a bad smile savin face

                            tryin to hide the shame.



                            (verse leading into chorus)

                            So when time comes to do some undoin

                            I can't share this picture you're viewin,

                            but if you look beyond the proof

                            the real portrait is a spoof.



                            chorus:

                            I've been better babe - oh yeah

                            just a print of a love you knew

                            I've been better babe - oh yeah

                            This image is foolin you.

                            I've been better babe - oh yeah

                            You're outa focus and missin the truth.



                            (instrumental break)



                            Well it's so unnatural

                            to think about leavin you.

                            My debt's so emotional

                            but it's hard to pay my dues.

                            We been down we been up

                            and I'm feelin down for you.

                            I can't seem to wrap it up

                            and hurt you with the truth.



                            So when time comes to do some undoin

                            I can't share this picture you're viewin

                            But if you look beyond the proof

                            the real portrait is a spoof.



                            (ending like chorus)

                            I've been better babe -woh yeah

                            Gotta face you with the truth

                            I've been better babe - umm umm

                            gotta level up with you.

                            Just a print of a love you knew.

                            I've been better babe - uh huh

                            you're outa focus and missin the truth..

                            oh ...I'm just a print of a love you knew

                            ummm hummm print of a love you knew..woh yeah.
