Oh, i carry a photograph 
Girl of the way you used to be 
Love looking back at me, now it's just a memory 
You were all laughter then 
And you were my light when it was dark 
How did we lose our way, how did we fall apart 

'cause something in our kisses 
Said love would never end 
And deep down you still feel it too 
But you won't let me in 

So when you smile like mona lisa 
My heart falls to pieces 
('cause) smiling just can't hide 
All the sadness in your eyes 
If i could only hold you 
Love you like i used to 
But girl what can i do 
When you smile like mona lisa 

The way that i held you close 
The way that you whispered my name 
We made a work of art 
Know there's just an empty frame 

All we had 
Baby we could have again 
And deep down you still feel it too 
But you won't let me in 

So when you smile like mona lisa 
My heart falls to pieces 
('cause) smiling just can't hide 
All the sadness in your eyes 
If i could only hold you 
Love you like i used to 
But girl what can i do 
When you smile like mona lisa 

So when you smile like mona lisa 
My heart falls to pieces 
('cause) smiling just can't hide 
All the sadness in your eyes 
If i could only hold you 
Love you like i used to 
But girl what can i do 
When you smile like mona lisa 

I carry a photograph 
Girl of the way you used to be...
