Lyrics:
I’ve been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they’re real
I’ve been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are
All I can feel
Remembering you
Standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in
Holding you close
How I always held close in your fear
Remembering you
Running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
And screamed at the make-believe
Screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage
To let it all go
Remembering you
Fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white
So delicate
Lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering you
How you used to be
Slow drowned
You were angels
So much more than everything
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes
But I never see anything
If only I’d thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I’d thought of the right words
I wouldn’t be breaking apart
All my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of you
But I never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you

Hot desert sands is the same as snow … as long it is in B&W …
That snow bear , escaping at the end , had to be drunk !

Oh how I love long and winding intros..
Peace be with you. There is a haunting sadness with this song. Remember that your lost loves are in heaven smiling down upon you and they know that you greatly miss them. They are only a heartbeat away! I know they want all of you to be happy and cheerful and live your lives moving forward. You will wake up one morning and you will smile, and your grief will pass away into sunshine! God Bless!

GREAT AT LEAST YOU HAVE STILL GOT GOOD MEMORIES OF YOUR BROTHER LISTENING TO THE CURE. ❤
I’m not to sure it’s possible to listen to this once .
No words ❤
Happy Birthday! The CURE and Happy Anniversary! 🙂
Disintegration is the masterpiece of Cure. All the songs go deep inside all of us. Each word, each sentence is poetic and touch our heart. Robert Smith is a great writer.
NICE SONG FOR ANY WOMEN. ❤❤❤

By far one of the greatest songs known to mankind.
One of the greatest songs ever made.

When my granddaughter was born she didn't come around. My wife, her granny, spoke to her and she opened her eyes after looking at pictures of her.
It will always be very special to me. Thank you Robert
they found the groove

RIP Mumsie…⚘️
Never really listened to the cure what an epic song
That build up leading into the sparkle effect with the soft “do do do do do do do do do do”
I always felt their music is like a Cure for when the world is getting on top of me.
Healing song for a big love lost forever while living the afterlife and carry on. Wth songs like this. Thanks for the healing songs!

Robert Smith is one of the most amazing lyricists and a beautiful soul, who is living a human experience. So very thankful for him since I was a teenager 🙌

This song reminds me of traveling solo through Cuernavaca, Mexico, in late 2024, remembering someone who's gone.
