The painter stood
|
Before her work
|
She looked around every where
|
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 too many
|
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.
