Brian Bulger - The Painter Lyrics

Leaving early to get you there
Your hold sure can set a man straight
Feeling sorry, I didn't care
I'm not one to complicate

She spoke in whispers,
Screamed on the paint
In the color I saw her heart
She says she loves me, I've no complaint
She can have every part

I would erase my life, and I'd turn to white
Dancing in the desert
And I'd be that knight at the highest height
Oh if I could save you
But I can't

That old canvas, thrown on the floor
What was all that art even for?
I'd sit quietly, you'd move your brush
I just wanted your love and your touch

Now there's a shadow, on her skin
And the lines show where she's been
If you can see me, paint me in
Call me back again
