Oh in the night, there are sights to be seen
Stars like jewels on the crown of the green
But the only sight I want of you
Is that wonderful picture of you

On a streetcar, or in a café
All of the evening and most of the day
My mind is in a maze, what can I do
I still see that picture of you

It was last summer, I fell in love
My heart told me what to do
I saw you there on the crest of a hill
And I took a little picture of you
Then you were gone like a dream in the night
With you went my heart, my love and my light
I didn’t know your name, what could I do
I only had a picture of you

It was last summer, I fell in love
My heart told me what to do
Then you were gone like a dream in the night
I only had a picture of you – oh yeah!
That wonderful picture of you
…I only had a picture of you
