Discover the story of the song > Wishing If I Had A Photograph Of You – A Flock Of Seagulls

The protagonist is talking about how they are attracted to their partner, but it's not just about their looks or how they smile. It's not about how they have their hair or what kind of style they have. It could be their perfume that is appealing. It's not about how they do their makeup or how they dance. It's not even about the beautiful evening sky. It's more about how their eyes show joy when they look at the protagonist. The protagonist wishes they had a photograph of their partner or something to remind them of her so they wouldn't spend their life just wishing. If it's not the things their partner says or does, then there must be something more to their attraction. The protagonist questions if their feelings are all for nothing if their partner ever walks out the door. So, having a photograph or something to remind them would be helpful in not just wishing.
