Lyrics[]
"Photograph"
Def Leppard
I'm outta luck, outta love
Gotta photograph, picture of
Passion killer, you're too much
You're the only one I want to touch
I see your face every time I dream
On every page, every magazine
So wild and free so far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy
Oh, look what you've done to this rock 'n' roll clown
Oh oh, look what you've done
(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph
But it's not enough
I'd be your lover, if you were there
Put your hurt on me, if you dare
Such a woman, you got style
You make every man feel like a child, oh
You got some kinda hold on me
You're all wrapped up in mystery
So wild so free and far from me
You're all I want, my fantasy
Oh, look what you've done to this rock 'n' roll clown
Oh oh, look what you've done
I gotta have you
(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph
You've gone straight to my head
Oh, look what you've done to this rock 'n' roll clown
Oh, look what you've done
I gotta have you
(Photograph)
I don't want your
(Photograph)
I don't need your
(Photograph)
All I've got is a photograph
I want to touch you
Oh, (Photograph)
(Photograph) your photograph
(Photograph)
(Photograph)
I need more than your
(Photograph) I'm outta love
(Photograph) I'm outta love
(Photograph) you're the only one
(Photograph) I want to touch
