Maynard, Conor - Pictures Lyrics






I stack these magazines in the corner,
(After I'm done with them)
And I still got the same hopes that I started with,
(That you'd be in one of them)
My camera has shed some tears since you left him,
With nothing, with nothing,

How am I supposed to remember?
I got the memories,
But the memories fade baby,
What am I gonna show to my kids girl?
When I'm older and my mind is telling me to forget you,
What's gonna make me remember?

That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures
Cause' I didn't wanna miss our thing, miss our thing
Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures
When you knew they were all that I had left, nothing left
They were part of our history, this story
I was always taking pictures,
Cause' I didn't wanna miss you so bad
Miss you this bad, miss you so bad, miss you so

We didn't make love we celebrated it's invention
Confetti on the mattress I used to have those images,
Tonight I came home, they were just embers in the fire,
With my hard drive, almost no goodbyes

How the hell am I supposed to remember?
Tell me now, I got the memories,
But the memories fade baby,
What am I gonna show to my kids girl?
When I'm older and my mind is telling me to forget you,
What's gonna make me remember?

That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures
Cause' I didn't wanna miss our thing, miss our thing
Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures
When you knew they were all that I had left, nothing left
They were part of our history, this story
I was always taking pictures,
Cause' I didn't wanna miss you so bad
Miss you this bad, miss you so bad, miss you so

No video, no polaroid,
No record of the love we had,
My Nikon wasn't fast enough,
To catch my heart break in half,
No smiles in my picture frames, no,
Just got them little basic ones that the picture frames come with,
Models, wedding pictures, you know

That's why I was always taking pictures, pictures
Cause' I didn't wanna miss our thing, miss our thing
Tell me how could you take the pictures, pictures
When you knew they were all that I had left, nothing left
They were part of our history, this story
I was always taking pictures,
Cause' I didn't wanna miss you so bad
Miss you this bad, miss you so bad, miss you so

  3. T.... I....

    Franks is better

  4. T.... A....

    so this is what frank was doing

  5. N.... B....

    Found this song YEARS ago from the Lonny Breaux collection and somehow found this version maybe 2016, now here i am thinking about my regrets in life over old Frank Ocean demos 😭😭😭😭😭

  6. S.... M....

    lembro quando amava ouvir conor Maynard.

  7. R.... S....

    he should consider a career in butchery. what in the world??!! shouldnt have covered a legend like Frank

    R.... S....

    Frank sold this to him

  8. A.... A....

  17. l.... a....

    What's this Frank Ocean's version is better

  18. K.... C....

    DOES IT MATTER WHAT HE SAID AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SONG? DOES IT MATTER WHO WROTE IT? This is a great song that is what you are missing so stop whining about who made the song or what was said in he beginning of the songs. Geez WHO CARES?

  25. A.... C....

    That moment when he copies Justin Bieber's "Down To Earth" by saying "Mafia" in the beginning

    A.... C....

  26. D.... A....

    Cara.. Eu amo essa música ! Sou do Brazil e não sei como te descobrir mais sou teu fã a mt tempo e essa música fez parte do meu antigo namoro kk

  27. G.... G....

    i love his voice! He should sing more music.

  28. B.... P....

    where has Conor gone? We haven't heard anything from in in months! Come on Conor come back with some amazing songs!!

    B.... P....

    He just released a cover album that has an original song on it!

  29. O.... S....

    frank ocean, you lyrical genius you.

    O.... S....

    Meh. The lyrics are corny.
    He got much better with his lyrics.
    The MELODY, that’s why this song is great.

    O.... S....

    @WhateverForever Fagg

    O.... S....

    @Jose Lino He's not wrong. I'd argue that Frank Ocean is more known for his melodies.

    O.... S....

    @Ramiro Most definitely bro.

  30. Z.... V....

    frank wrote it. he owns that lyrical talent

  31. G.... G....

    Frank Ocean made this song? Ohhh imma check that out, but as of now I love Conor Maynard's version <3.

  32. A.... W....

    Both Frank Ocean's and Conor Maynard's version's are good, personally I just much prefer Frank Ocean's voice haha

  33. J.... .....

    Perfect

  34. M.... P....

    Just saying Conor sings it better

    M.... P....

    he is a great singer, but nope not even close to frank ocean

    M.... P....

    Connor Maynard ain't got a thing on frank ocean. Frank sings it with so much passion and emotion behind it.

  35. T.... ....

    Love this

  36. T.... ....

    not even close to franks

    T.... ....

    I don't :)

    T.... ....

    There's no point in comparing :/

    T.... ....

    @Giselle Maldonado where Do we listen to Frank's version?

    T.... ....

    @ScopedEnfield Lonny Breaux Collection online

  37. q.... l....

    it doesn't have the same pain that the original frank ocean one does..

  38. d.... ....

    Nothing like Justin. That's racist. lol

  39. F.... ....

    ILOVEHim

  40. F.... ....

    HOLD UP! You beilbers are talking about justin briber when he has no respect for his fans,the dick thinks its funny to spit on his fans. And as far as talent is concerned justin booby is just as voice tuned as a dog

  41. K.... ....

    My fave boy Conor ❤

  42. P.... T....

    Amazing. Do love this meaningful song (;

  43. I.... S....

    the song is still perfect plus we still have franks version soooooo

  44. s.... p....

    Perfect **

  45. E.... R....

    sometimes I think when people like something on YouTube its because a celeb. wrote thought or has some little part to do with it at least for example conor has 96 likes is comment stating he can't remember the next line I just... well you know don't get the big deal other the it was him that posted it but I love him and I am NOT saying I think he's not important

  46. M.... ....

    This is perfection.

  47. n.... ....

    Oh ok so Frank Ocean was the original artist for this song?

  48. C.... S....

    frank ocean wrote it, calm down.

  49. j.... w....

    Their the production team that made the song...thats their music credits so other artists know who to work with.

  50. j.... w....

    Mafia are the production team that made it. Thats their music credits...lol.

  51. j.... w....

    Yea his version sounds fictional, Frank Oceans version sounds real, I think Frank REALLY went through that, his sound like a disney channel song. lol.

  52. j.... w....

    Franks a songwriter originally, he made this song for r&b artists like this..both versions are great.

  53. d.... s....

    well done conor!!!

  54. I.... M....

    I LOVE IT

  55. C.... 9....

    Damn so hard to get used to since I know this as Frank's song xD

  56. B.... C....

  59. T.... S....

    Where did you get yr Will Smith top? My brother really loves it and what sizes do they do?

  60. i.... ....

    Beautiful lyrics, Ocean and Conor both have good voices. But Frank is more soothing to the ears.

  61. M.... K....

    How about nobody cares , if frank ocean wrote this song or not. Atleast conor can sing . Damn. I would like to see Justin hit them high notes.

  62. M.... M....

    This Is The Better Version,Omg♥

  63. C.... ....

    Why did it say mafia at the beginning?

  64. K.... F....

    Beautiful melody :)

  65. A.... M....

  68. M.... B....

    Frank Ocean version waaaay better

  69. k.... ....

    frank ocean

  70. T.... P....

    i didn't say he sounds like justin. i just said that in the beginning, it says ''Mafia''..like in some of justin's songs.

  71. w.... ....

    I scroll through the comments and a ton of them are about the memories part lol

  72. L.... M....

    This is so Better!

  73. i.... ....

    Oh wait frank wrote the song

  74. i.... ....

    Why in hell are you comparing Conor to Frank Ocean. That's like comparing oranges to potatoes what.

  75. g.... s....

    well your a spoon then coz it sounds nothing like justin beiber down to earth or bigger

  76. e.... ....

    All in all the song itself is amazing! Luv the lyrics:)

  77. e.... ....

    Connor has a good voice and all but I like frank ocean's better. Frank's just sounds right. Has more meaning to it and the beat sounds better too. Idk.

  78. T.... P....

    ''Mafia...'' this reminds of Justin's ''down to earth'' and ''bigger'' :')

  79. K.... K....

    Agreed ^~^ Aha (x

  80. A.... P....

    cooooooooool
