Painting

With water and the colours of love,
Paitence and a calm heart
I think about your mouth,
Your lips and our promise
With shadows and a romance's light,
Which shines from the depths of you
I know it's right,
What I must paint now,
As I'm drawing the lines
 
The canvas hangs on the wall and has been staring at me for hours
I have an idea about a picture to paint,
But I just can't find the colours
The canvas hanging in front of me is still empty
And I'm afraid because I know I'm painting out of the line
But will you be the picture that I'm painting
In my painting
In my painting
 
Patient and full of love, I'm quietly lying
Every part of you down
Because this, what we have, i a lot more than
What words could say
 
The canvas hangs on the wall and has been staring at me for hours
I have an idea about a picture to paint,
But I just can't find the colours
The canvas hanging in front of me is still empty
And I'm afraid because I know I'm painting out of the line
But will you be the picture that I'm painting
In my painting
In my painting
 
Although I make mistakes,
I will start again
 
The canvas hangs on the wall and has been staring at me for hours
I have an idea about a picture to paint,
But I just can't find the colours
The canvas hanging in front of me is still empty
And I'm afraid because I know I'm painting out of the line
But will you be the picture that I'm painting
In my painting
In my painting
