Trivia, story behind the song, etc.

Lyrics

Somehow my Helen died • A year before the war • So I drank up • And I married Claire 
• But it don’t much matter anymore • Cause I can’t take a picture 
• These old eyes are worn • They’re worn

I’ve lied to myself before • And I guess that’s like lying to god 
• But I loved her before I loved you • And there’s something to be said 
• For the first wife that’s dead • And I can’t take a picture 
• These old eyes are worn • No I can’t take a picture these old eyes are worn

But on with this life • You can cut me • Where I used to shine 
• I look dull around the edges • But I’m doing fine • I’m going fine

I can’t take a picture • These old eyes are worn.
