I went for a walk today
And when I came home you were a way
And I couldn't help but notice I didn't care
This pen will write and the ink will just flow
and we both wish that's how life could go
but it doesn't
not even with a good shake
I would give you all the pearls in the sea
if I thought that it would help me.
Help me to say these words but I know
that it wont.
that it wont.
I know that it wont.
I've been staring at candlelight
just because I thought it might bring some clarity
to this well lit room
I mistook oil paints for watercolors
this portrait doesn't look like the others
this one is going to wash out
I would give you all the pearls in the sea
if I thought that it would help me.
Help me to say these words but I know
that it wont.
that it wont.
I know that it wont.
I mistook oil paints for watercolors
this portrait doesn't look like the others
this one is going to wash out.
