Gloria Estefan - Your Picture Lyrics

Every day I wake up to your picture
Open up my eyes and there's still you
In the very corner I first placed you
The very same expression that lights up all of my room

Though the colors may be somewhat faded
The smile has almost vanished from your face
As you disappear I re-invent you
From my imagination you'll never be erased

There is no way to bargain with the future
In the end there are no guarantees, oh no
Even if you're gone I'll always find you right here where I left you
Smiling back at me

Every star has a season, a moment, a reason to be
We may watch with regret as they flicker then die
But at least for one second we bathed in the light of their passing
The memories lasting

Through the years and the distance your image remains
Like the first day I saw you, you'll never be changed
As a token you left me your picture

Every day I wake up to your picture
I fashion you a different attitude
I try to visualize the things you're doing, ooh
Not in desperation, just to feel a part of you

There is no way to bargain with the future
What we have in store we can't foresee, oh no
Even if you're gone I'll always find you right here where I left you
Smiling back at me

Every star has a season, a moment, a reason to be
We may watch with regret as they flicker then die
But at least for one second we bathed in the light of their passing
The memories lasting

Through the years and the distance your image remains
Like the first day I saw you, you'll never be changed
As a token you left me your picture
Smiling back at me
