The Painter

If I were a painter
Mixing my colors
How could I ever find the blue of your eyes
The canvas could never
Capture the light of your smile, of your smile

And girl if I were a sculptor
Working in marble
I couldn't hope to copy your perfect face
The curve of your body
The feel of your skin
My hands could never
Ever trace

So I try to find the melody as beautiful as you
Find the words to say your eyes are bluer than blue
Fill my voice with the emotion I'm feeling for you
And now when the beat is so strong
I'd give my heart in a song

If I were an actor
I could be someone
Someone who'd always know the right things to say
But as soon as I'd see you
I'd forget all my lines
And you'd never know what I feel inside

So I try to find the melody as beautiful as you
Find the words to say your eyes are bluer than blue
Fill my voice with the emotion I'm feeling for you
And now when the beat is so strong
I'd give my heart in a song

There's no other way
