take the time

laugh and cry, but laugh more by Alistair Chong

Smile, say cheese
Because I'm waiting to freeze
Ourselves into infinity
This moment between you and me
Laugh and dance
Or take the chance
To look away from the lens
Be lost in your friend

Find yourself in the photo
Bring it with you
Because when today is tomorrow
Yesterdays will be few
But we'll laugh and cry
As we look back through history
Know we were right
To save ourselves from the mystery

Flick through the past
Wonder at how fast
We've flown through the days
Been lost in the haze
And smile at our youth
Our innocence in the truth
And thank God that that day
We stopped time, tucked it away

Find yourself in the photo
Bring it with you
Because when today is tomorrow
Yesterdays will be few
But we'll laugh and cry
As we look back through history
Know we were right
To save ourselves from the mystery

Get lost with me
As the shutter clicks into forever
Because it's so good to see
Us so sweet together
