Forever in negative

Flash bright, trapped light
Holding you so tight
I envied its caress
Short sleeve style and
Regulation smile
Caught up in my camera's kiss

You are frozen there for me
With your gentle celtic beauty I knew
All I wanted was you
And 'cos I never said
And 'cos you'd never see
You are forever in negative to me

You will always be there
Posing patiently and I could pretend
You could just be a friend
But there's cruelty in those memories now
Making me believe that I could still make it right
But I will never go back

So you are frozen there for me
As the gentle celtic beauty I knew
All I wanted was you
And 'cos I never said
And 'cos you'd never see
You are forever in negative to me

Better if I never remember
Better if I never remember
So much you never could have known
Love could never bring us together
Love could never bring us together
Your image fading in the sun

So smile for me
Smile for me

Always frozen
Never free
Just a photograph of someone I knew
Just a moment of you
'Cos when I looked in your eyes
I knew how it would be
You are forever in negative
