Vernon Dalhart <br /><br />"An Old Fashioned Picture"<br /><br />Carson J. Robison, guitar<br /><br />August 27, 1926<br /><br />’Most every picture that hangs on the wall<br />brings back some sweet memory,<br />and as the years all grow longer, <br />a vision haunts me stronger, <br />a picture I’m longing to see.<br /><br />There is a picture, an old-fashioned picture,<br />That hangs on the wall of my heart.<br />I’m not forgetting the way I’m regretting<br />The day when I said we must part.<br /><br />Take me back once again to the scenes of my childhood—<br />I know someone waits with a true love to impart—<br />Back to that picture, that old-fashioned picture,<br />That hangs on the wall of my heart.
