| Lyrics: | Picture how your nights would be sleeping soundly Softly as the moonlight falls on the trees Picture all the dreams you’ll keep breathing freely Every night’s a picture girl if you believe Picture how your days would be speaking gently Simple as a mirror shows what you really are Picture all that you would learn listening slowly Every day’s a picture girl if you believe Always spinning with the world You are missing all the sunsets Still the universe goes on around you So come outside and play a while Before your body comes to take you All the walls that keep you safe Will crumble down and break you Lead Bridge Picture you are beautiful and you will be Coloring the darkest times with a smile Picture now that you are loved and you will see All the while the picture girl was there inside Written by Dave Tough/Rick Noonberg |

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
