PORTRAIT IN THE ATTIC

SOMEWHERE IN SOMEONE'S MIND I'M STILL 17

JUST LIKE I WAS BEFORE I KNEW LIFE WAS SO MEAN

IT'S NICE TO KNOW I'M STILL A KID IN SOMEONE ELSE'S DREAMS

WIDE-EYED WITH WONDER, BIG IDEAS AND SCHEMES

THANK YOU FOR YOUR FANTASY

PLEASE HOLD MY PLACE IN TIME

THANK YOU FOR YOUR MEMORIES

THANK YOU FOR BEING KIND

I MET A MAN AT 24 WHO SAW ME AT MY BEST

NO WEIGHT UPON MY SHOULDERS, NO BRA UPON MY CHEST

TO HIM I RIDE A MOTORCYCLE AND MY LIFE IS WILD AND FREE

AND IF I'D A MET ME WHEN HE DID, I'D STILL REMEMBER ME

CHORUS

THERE'S A GUY IN MONTANA I KNEW AT 31

HE WATCHED ME BUILD MY CAMPER, AND WE LIVED LIFE IN THE SUN

IN HIS MIND'S EYE, I'LL NEVER BECOME THE THINGS I HATE

IT'S NICE TO KNOW THAT SOMEWHERE, THERE'S NO DESTINY OR FATE

CHORUS
