Cover art for Old Pictures lyrics by Something For Kate

At the recent Live At The Corner recordings, Paul says that this song is about "selective memory.. what you choose to erase, & what you potentially can't erase."

that sums up my ideas about this song perfectly. there is someone whose pages i want "fly away", but he's still "on every train i hear".. he is out of my life - but not my memory. there's just some parts that won't go away..

gorgeous, gorgeous song.
