I talk to your photograph each day
You should hear the lovely things I say
But I thought how happy I would be
If your photograph could talk to me

If I had a talking picture of you
I would run it every time I felt blue
I would sit there in gloom
Of my lonely little room
And applaud each time you whispered
"I love you, love you . . ."

On the screen the moment you came in view
We would talk the whole thing over, we two
I would give ten shows a day
And a midnight matinee
If I had a talking picture of you

If I had a talking picture of you
I would write a dreamy scene for you
I could make it up so grand
And I'm sure you'd understand
Everytime I said the sweet words
"I love you, love you . . ."

Just for once I'd realize my ambition
We'd be all alone without intermission
That the censor won't object
We would kiss with sound effect
If I had a talking picture of nobody else but you
