picturesque
lyrics and music by Penelope Houston


you look so picturesque
so picturesque in your pretty dress
you look so picturesque
so picturesque in your pretty dress
you look so
you look so picturesque
so picturesque in your pretty angel dress

you've got your wings on tight
how did you know?
your halo's filling with light
how did you know?
daddy's coming back home
your daddy's coming back home

you look so picturesque
so picturesque in your pretty dress
you look so
you look so picturesque
so picturesque in your pretty angel dress

you stayed up very very late
how did you know?
how many years you'll have to wait
how did you know?
daddy's coming back home
your daddy's coming back home

and all the good things they could be better
and all the bad thing they're taking root in your heart
and all the sad things never go away
he said he always will love you baby
he said he always will love you no matter what
he said he always will love you baby
he said he always will love you
but I can't promise you I'll ever take him back

you look so
you look so picturesque
so picturesque in your pretty dress
you look so picturesque
so picturesque in your pretty angel dress

nothing will ever be the same
how did you know?
all we're keeping is the name
how did you know?
daddy's coming back home
