Paint Me a Picture

Paint me a picture of the man you used to be
Don't gloss it over and tell me honestly
Paint me a picture of the man that you once was
Show me flaws and your patterns and your faults

I like the way that you color 'round the lines
How your different stories blend and intertwine
How you made it through that broken rotten time
And now I think you're painting me a picture

Paint me a picture of the love that you once had
Did she treat you gentle or did she treat you bad?
I can paint you a picture of the man I once used to love
But it wasn't enough I just had to give him up

I like the way that you look up in the sky
All the times that you listen and ask why
How you made it through that broken rotten time
And now I think you're painting me a picture

You've painted me a picture and now I see it
You've painted me a picture but can you be it?
You've painted me a picture, aah, aah, aah

Da, da, da, da, da, da-da-da-da
Paint a little picture
Hang it on the wall
You've gotta bare it all

Da, da, da, da, da, da-da-da-da
Paint a little picture
Hang it on the wall
You've gotta bare it all

Paint me a picture crazy as it seems (ooh-ooh)
Color it and shade it with the shadows of your dreams (aah-aah)
I can paint you a picture don't rush we have the time (ooh-ooh)
These precious details are only yours and mine

I love the way that you color 'round the lines (color 'round the lines)
How your different stories blend and intertwine (blend and intertwine)
How you made it through that broken rotten time
And now I think that I can see your picture

You've painted me a picture and now I see it
You've painted me a picture but can you be it?
You've painted me a picture, aah, aah, aah

Da, da, da, da, da, da-da-da-da
Paint a little picture
Hang it on the wall
You've gotta bare it all

Da, da, da, da, da, da-da-da-da
Paint a little picture
Hang it on the wall
You've gotta bare it all

I didn't know that you knew me like that
Didn't know you saw my soul even caught a glimpse of it
I didn't know that you knew me like that
Didn't know you knew my face every little inch of it
