Who Needs Pictures

there's an old kodak camera in my dresser drawer

i ran across it just this afternoon

and i realize that i don't ever use it anymore

in fact last time i did

i think it was with you

when we were down in cosmo

we had the whole beach to ourselves

and it's crazy now to think

that it's all there on that film

and i could take it to the store to be developed

but what for i can still see everything just fine

and who needs picture

with a memory like mine

standing there i couldn't help but think about

everything that might be on that road

i think it even has another trip we took

i guess that must have been at least three years ago

when we were down in baton rouge

and there wasn't much to do

so we drove into new orleans every afternoon

and i swear that you would think

that it was only yesterday

cause i can still see everything just fine

who needs pictures

with a memory like mine

somewhere in my closet there's a cardboard box

just sitting on a shelf

it's full of faded memories

and it's been there ever since the night you left

all just forgotten photographs to remind me of the past

oh but i can still see everything just fine

who needs pictures

with a memory like mine

yeah who needs pictures

with a memory like mine
