The Painter

The painter stood before her work

She looked around everywhere

She saw the pictures and she painted them

She picked the colors from the air

Green to green, red to red

Yellow to yellow in the light

Black to black when the evening comes

Blue to blue in the night

It's a long road behind me

It's a long road ahead

If you follow every dream you might get lost

If you follow every dream you might get lost

She towed the line, she held her end up

She did the work of two men

But in the end

She fell down before she got up again

I keep my friends eternally

We leave our tracks in the sound

Some of them are with me now

Some of them can't be found

It's a long road behind me

And I miss you now

If you follow every dream you might get lost

If you follow every dream you might get lost

Green to green, red to red

Yellow to yellow in the light

Black to black when the evening comes

Blue to blue through the night
