the world inside a frame - jason robert brown lyrics

Loading...

[robert]
it starts with the light
it’s like you wouldn’t even know which way to look
until the sun showed you a line
showed you a corner
built you a frame
and once there’s a frame
then you can see

[he walks to her, points at the bridge.]
see?

[he puts the camera in front of her.]
now: see?

see the world!
here’s the world through a small, small window
you thought it was a bridge
you thought it was the water
you thought it was the sky…
it’s the world, inside a frame

and you wait
and you wait
and you wait
and you…
right there, something shifted! something…
that tree threw a shadow! did you…?

[excited but controlled, he cl1cks the shutter.]

there! there! there!
it’s like all you didn’t know that you were waiting for
is just outside the frame
and it can change
the way you see…

[he lowers the camera.]

see the world!
here’s the world in a box forever

[he looks at francesca and sees something.]

go stand over there

[she walks to where he’s pointing. he raises the camera to his eye.]

don’t look at me
now: look at me
look at me
there. there. there. there. there

[he continues taking pictures of her, until the roll is finished.]

there’s the world
there’s the world in your face, francesca
