The Painter
I could tell you I would stay
Forever and ever and a day
The sun, the moon, the stars are ripe for you
To pluck by hand just like forbidden fruit
Canvas, paint, and brush in hand
Intrigue my eyes to fall and stand
I'll paint you a portrait of our love
Cause imagining for me is not enough
I will stay here all my days
Til' all my colors have turned grey
With every stroke I see your heart bloom shades
Your eyes on me bring pigment to my paint
My hands callouse with each day
Yours dance on an ivory stage
Your composition unlocks life
With keys moving swiftly black and white
My eyes are blind without your song
Your ears for my paint stroke, do long
Arpeggiating tones tune hearts to stay
The love I'll paint you stains through my last page
Forever and ever and a day
The sun, the moon, the stars are ripe for you
To pluck by hand just like forbidden fruit
Canvas, paint, and brush in hand
Intrigue my eyes to fall and stand
I'll paint you a portrait of our love
Cause imagining for me is not enough
I will stay here all my days
Til' all my colors have turned grey
With every stroke I see your heart bloom shades
Your eyes on me bring pigment to my paint
My hands callouse with each day
Yours dance on an ivory stage
Your composition unlocks life
With keys moving swiftly black and white
My eyes are blind without your song
Your ears for my paint stroke, do long
Arpeggiating tones tune hearts to stay
The love I'll paint you stains through my last page
