The Artist
She wrote me down a tune
That had me wondering if I was dead
Then it woke me, moving
With the swaying of my head
I know she's in the driveway dancing
After I'm in bed
Naked in the starlight
With her arms above her head
She says the artist is reckless
With the freedom of flight
High, ride the wind or die
Bring me the moon one more time
She won't concede to the lowly prospect
That down below there's a bitter truth
Don't look now, I do not intend to argue
You keep doing you
If nothing else you've got the view
Painting of the trees and sparrows
Scattered across the floor
Candles in the hallway
Are running her to the door
Perhaps the stars at night have written
A message across the sky
True enough to lure her
Leaving it all behind
Cause when the artist is restless
It's the freedom of flight
High, reach your arms out wide
Sail the skies one more time
She says the artist is reckless
With the freedom of flight
High, ride the wind or die
Bring me the moon one more time
She won't concede to the lowly prospect
That down below there's a bitter truth
Don't look now, I do not intend to argue
You keep doing you
If nothing else you've got the view
If nothing else you've got the view
If nothing else you've got the view
That had me wondering if I was dead
Then it woke me, moving
With the swaying of my head
I know she's in the driveway dancing
After I'm in bed
Naked in the starlight
With her arms above her head
She says the artist is reckless
With the freedom of flight
High, ride the wind or die
Bring me the moon one more time
She won't concede to the lowly prospect
That down below there's a bitter truth
Don't look now, I do not intend to argue
You keep doing you
If nothing else you've got the view
Painting of the trees and sparrows
Scattered across the floor
Candles in the hallway
Are running her to the door
Perhaps the stars at night have written
A message across the sky
True enough to lure her
Leaving it all behind
Cause when the artist is restless
It's the freedom of flight
High, reach your arms out wide
Sail the skies one more time
She says the artist is reckless
With the freedom of flight
High, ride the wind or die
Bring me the moon one more time
She won't concede to the lowly prospect
That down below there's a bitter truth
Don't look now, I do not intend to argue
You keep doing you
If nothing else you've got the view
If nothing else you've got the view
If nothing else you've got the view
