Paint Me a Picture and I’ll Write You A Song
(She cries out to me me
Saying I’d write you a line
if you’ll sing me a song
And with a tear in my eye,
I knew I was wrong)
So the night never comes
When I’m in Chicago
And the sun hasn’t shone
since maybe December
But I’m feeling alone,
And I can’t remember
Another cold day,
here in the city
is no place for a dreamer
So I take to the road
and head for the coast
Tonight I’m searching for answers
to all these questions on my mind
through searching in all the wrong places
for all the perfect words I want to find
So we walked for hours along the tide
and I told her what was on my mind
I Wish I knew the words to say
the perfect words to make you stay
but your love is meant to change the world
I see it in you every day
Bringing darkness to the light
Your meant for my I know
but before I let you go
I ask her to leave something to remember her by
And she paints me a sunrise
across the morning sky
