Basim is done with skubadubadabdadididajs and is getting serious. After last week’s world premier on Swedish radio, Basim’s new single “Picture In A Frame” is now available on Spotify and iTunes.
Basim “Picture In A Frame” Lyrics Video
“Picture In A Frame” proves that Basim isn’t a one trick pony. But he’s not very original either. Back in March we asked you if he was a Bruno Mars-rip off. Now he’s taking influences from all those ballads by the Backstreet Boys. However, in a recent interview with eurovision.tv, he said, “I really want to produce something that is more me, and that defines me as an artist.” Well, he is 90’s kid after all. He’s also a man, and sounds much more masculine on this number than he did at Eurovision.
The song is all about losing someone you love, and it has a universal quality. There’s always someone going through the emotions, just as he expresses on the track. “It is a crazy feeling when you create something that actually touches people,” he says.
Picture In A Frame lyrics – Basim
I know what we had girl
I never would’ve seen us breaking up
Should’ve done my best to keep you mine
I know you gave me warnings
I really should’ve paid more attention girl
Instead of pushing your love to the side
Can we go back to before you left
This time I’ll be different
Promise I’ll be a better man
Another lonely night
WIshing that things would change
Cause baby since you left things haven’t been the same
Still wanna touch your face
Still wish we had one more day
But baby all I got is this picture in a frame
I miss how it feels girl
When I used to hold you in my arms
This emptiness is tearing me inside
Going to the place where
I met you the first time in my mind
Rememering the way I made you smile
I wanna go back to before you left
This time I’ll be different
I promise I’ll be a better man
Another lonely night
WIshing that things would change
Cause baby since you left things haven’t been the same
Stll wanna touch your face
Still wish we had one more day
But baby all I got is this picture in a frame
No I don’t wanna say goodbye (say goodbye)
I see my future in your eyes (in our eyes)
So baby please wont you please pick up the phone (please pick up the phone again)
Don’t wanna spend another lonely night (lonely night)
Cause I want you here by my side
I’m on my knees
Baby please don’t leave me alone
Another lonely night
I wish we had one more day
But baby all I got is this picture in a frame
I’m wishing you would come back home
Wishing you would come back home, yeah
All I got is this picture
