Every time I think of her

I think in pictures not in words

They call her eyes the truth

Peanut butter, jelly toast

The simple wave, the golden coast

A rainbow on the moon.

Snow on a christmas tree

Warm summer winds and frozen fields

The autumn leaves that fall

Like clouds up in the sky

Some images they drift on by

Some stay within my heart.

[Chorus]

Cause if a thousand years from now

Someone would find this song somehow

If alien invaders could hear it

Then baby they would love you too

Just like I do, just like I do.

Every time I think of her

I think of sounds and not of words

They make the pictures talk.

The whistle of a nightingale

The rumble from the midnight train

The silence of the stars.

[Chorus]

Cause if a thousand years from now

Someone would find this song somehow

If alien invaders could hear it

Then baby they would love you too

Just like I do, just like I do.

And in a thousand years from now

Will these sounds be around?

Will these pictures be found?

Will they know what you mean to me?

[Chorus]

Cause if a thousand years from now

Someone would find this song somehow

If alien invaders could hear it

Then baby they would love you too

Just like I do, just like I do.
