Painted from Memory
Such a picture of loveliness
Didn't you notice the resemblance?
Doesn't it look like he could speak?
Those eyes I tried to capture
They're lost to me now forever
He smiles for someone else
Funny how looks can be deceiving
But he's not easily painted from memory
You'd think that I would know by now
Those eyes I tried to capture
They're lost to me now forever
They smile for someone else
And so this had to be painted from memory
He is gone, and I must accept it
He is lost to me now
But I can't look away just yet though
He smiles for someone else
Funny, now I can see how looks can be deceiving
Funny, now I can see how looks can be deceiving
Didn't you notice the resemblance?
Doesn't it look like he could speak?
Those eyes I tried to capture
They're lost to me now forever
He smiles for someone else
Funny how looks can be deceiving
But he's not easily painted from memory
You'd think that I would know by now
Those eyes I tried to capture
They're lost to me now forever
They smile for someone else
And so this had to be painted from memory
He is gone, and I must accept it
He is lost to me now
But I can't look away just yet though
He smiles for someone else
Funny, now I can see how looks can be deceiving
Funny, now I can see how looks can be deceiving
