 [Additional Lyrics]
 2.I wrote a letter
 And told her these words
 That meant a lot to me
 I never sent it
 She wouldn't have heard
 Her eyes don't follow me
 
 And while she watches
 I can never be free
 Such good photography
 
 3.You can't imagine
 What your image means
 The pages come alive
 Your magic free
 To everyone who reads
 Heartbreakin' motor drive
 
 Are you for real?
 It's so hard to tell
 From just a magazine
 Yeah, you just smile and the picture sells
 Look what that does to me
