Lyrics
Yearbook Photo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When the world gets me down I find myself
Reaching for that old leather-bound book
And there he smiles the gentle smile I know so well
And I am back where I used to be
Couldn't speak when I saw you in town
I picked you out easily from the crowd
A mirror image of your high school photograph
You took me back where we used to be
So won't you be my distant guiding star
I seem to lose my way among the crowd
Once in a while, in a little while
Come light my way from where you are
Willows spoke, willows swayed to and from
As we walked hand in hand by the riverflow
But now the views have changed that I used to know so well
Can't take me back where we used to be
So won't you be my distant guiding star
I seem to lose my way among the crowd
Once in a while, in a little while
Come light my way from where you are
Come light my way from where you are
