[Chorus]
If those lips could only speak
If those eyes could only see
If those beautiful golden tresses
Were here in reality
Could I only take your hand
As I did when you took my name
But it's only a beautiful picture
In a beautiful golden frame

[Verse 1]
They stood in a beautiful mansion
Surrounded by riches untold
And he gazed at a beautiful picture
That hung in a frame of gold
Was the picture of a lady
So beautiful young and fair
To this beautiful lifelike vision
He murmured in self-despair

[Chorus]
If those lips could only speak
If those eyes could only see
If those beautiful golden tresses
Were here in reality
Could I only take your hand
As I did when you took my name
But it's only a beautiful picture
In a beautiful golden frame
