Lines on the Paper
In an outdoor cafe you drew my picture
Drinking coffee all alone
I looked up and I caught you staring
At a picture all your own
Tell me, what are you seeing
Do you think that I'm alone
And do those lines upon your paper
Say I'm someone that you've known
Well I wonder what you'd do if I told you
That I'm a painter just like you
I paint your picture with these words
Instead of brushes like you do
Now it's a writer or a painter
Who can take a stranger home
Captured in the lines upon the paper
In a picture or a poem
Do you see what I'm seeing
That you're another one alone
And do these lines upon my paper
Say you're someone that I've known
Drinking coffee all alone
I looked up and I caught you staring
At a picture all your own
Tell me, what are you seeing
Do you think that I'm alone
And do those lines upon your paper
Say I'm someone that you've known
Well I wonder what you'd do if I told you
That I'm a painter just like you
I paint your picture with these words
Instead of brushes like you do
Now it's a writer or a painter
Who can take a stranger home
Captured in the lines upon the paper
In a picture or a poem
Do you see what I'm seeing
That you're another one alone
And do these lines upon my paper
Say you're someone that I've known
