"Taken" lyrics - BILL CALLAHAN

BILL CALLAHAN
"Taken"

In every photograph of me
Taken by you
I look like a dog
The family dog
Just staring like nobody's business
Just staring back at the lens like I know what's going on

In every photograph of me
Taken by you
I look like a dog
The family dog
Across my mouth there is something
Can you call it a smile
'Cause do dogs smile?
And smiles can fade
Smiles can fade

And this look on my face
Will never fade away
Never fade away

In every photograph of me
Taken by you
I look like a dog
The family dog
Just staring like nobody's business
Just staring back at the lens like I know what's going on

And in my eyes there is a look
In my eyes there is a look
Like I will never be able to tell you
Just how I feel about you
But I'll try
Oh I'll try

Oh oh oh I'll try (try)
Oh oh oh I'll try (try)
Oh oh oh I'll try (try)
Oh oh oh I'll try (try)
