Pepper Lyrics by Death Cab for Cutie
Take a picture to remember this by
You’ll never hold all the details in your mind
Fillin’ your head with superfluous facts
Pushin’ out what you’re never gettin’ back
And all that’s left is a version of the truth
A recollection that is often misconstrued
Sgt. Pepper with the faces of friends
But the names all elude you in the end
Kiss me just this one last time
Tell me that you once were mine
Take a picture to remember me by
To show everybody who you left behind
A near-miss that almost shot you out the blue
Now was a city and we’re only passin’ through
And all that’s left is a version of events
Favorably framed for the sake of self-defense
We barely notice as the pages disappear
Floating off into another year
Kiss me just this one last time
Tell me that you once were mine
Kiss me just this one last time
Show me that your love was mine
Kiss me just this one last time
Tell me that you once were mine
Kiss me just this one last time
Show me that your love was mine
