PAINTER'S SONG

I think too much, and I’m losing touch with the scene I paint.
It’s my clouded eyes — not a broken sky — that’s bringing on the rain,
running all the colors I love into these
muddy indefinable shades of a faded life.

But you
bring the beauty back to
everything you touch.
Oh, my muse,
you turn my gray to bright blue
when I feel the rush of longing for your brush on my skin.

Too many times I mark the lines as immovable and cruel.
Am I made of stone, a monochrome, a self-important fool?
But running with you wild in the night along the river,
your muddy fingers paint me into a masterpiece.

And you
bring the beauty back to
everything you touch.
Oh, my muse,
you turn my gray to bright blue
when I feel the rush of longing for your brush on my skin.

Tell me, can we find it again?
Dust off the empty canvas within,
rip it off of the frame
and stretch it across the sky:
Make a new day, a new day, a new day.

You
bring the beauty back to
everything you touch.
Oh, my muse,
you turn my gray to bright blue
when I feel, when I feel you bring the beauty back to
everything you touch,
Oh, my muse...
