They don’t know my story

Photos

I woke up one morning

Everything had changed

Mum isn’t feeling well

I’ll have to cope with

The story of my life, I spruced myself up

As my dad told me, roses don’t grow

in garbage

I run, I go round and round

I’m going mental

I come and go, I'm flying to Rio

Apart from my family, tell me who was there

While you follow1 me, I take refuge in prayer

[Chorus]

And they want to know why I don’t smile in the photos

They don’t know my story

Rocked by the sound of guitars

Beng, beng

If I don’t smile in the photos

It’s because my smile is in mourning

Even in the crowd I feel lonely

Hey hey

Photos

The future worries me, the past holds me back

The present makes me tired, from this life I no longer expect anything

Many would like to have the key

They hang around me, around me, but my heart is locked

Don’t talk me about love, I’m nobody’s girlfriend

Upset but not weak

Save your ‘Valentino’, I won’t be your Valentine

Together you’re stronger

While I stand alone

I’ve gained a few pounds

Since I took my2 ring off

[Chorus]

And they want to know why I don’t smile in the photos

They don’t know my story

Rocked by the sound of guitars

Beng, beng

If I don’t smile in the photos

It’s because my smile is in mourning

Even in the crowd I feel lonely

Hey ho

I’ve been wandering in my town to forget

My head aches so I prefer being alone

My soul is broken

Don’t come near, guy

Don’t you call me Farah, you know me only through my photos

I’ve been wandering in my town to forget

My head aches so I prefer being alone

My soul is broken

Don’t come near, guy

Don’t you call me Farah, you know me only through my photos

[Chorus]

And they want to know why I don’t smile in the photos

They don’t know my story

Rocked by the sound of guitars

Bing, bing

If I don’t smile in the photos

It’s because my smile is in mourning

Even in the crowd I feel lonely

Hey ho

And they want to know why I don’t smile in the photos

Bing, bing

Rocked by the sound of guitars
