A song about the meaning and memories held within the unassuming physical objects around you.
lyrics
Picture hanging over on the left hand side
Can you see it?
The colours of the paint are so bright
It's an old picture I drew of my lover
Back when it was she and I
There's a picture hanging
Over on the left hand side
Ivy creeping out of a ceramic vase
The leaves are purple
I think it's tradescantia
It's a young ivy growing here beside me
Nurtured from a stem I cut
There's some ivy creeping
Out of a ceramic vase
Picture hanging over on the left hand side
Can you see it?
The colours of the paint are so bright
It's an old picture I drew of my lover
Back when it was she and I
There's a picture hanging
Over on the left hand side
Wooden statue looking at me from my shelf
I remember seeing it in our old house
And I'll gaze at it when I think I've had it
Takes me back to better times
There's a wooden statue
Looking at me from my shelf
All these things around me
Pick me up when I feel sad
Like the picture hanging
Over on the left hand side
