Painted From Memory Lyrics - Burt Bacharach

Such a picture of loveliness 

Didn't you notice the resemblance? 

Doesn't it look like she could speak? 

Those eyes I tried to capture 

They are lost to me now forever 

They smile for someone else 

Funny, how looks can be deceiving 

But she`s not easily 

Painted from memory

You`d think that I would know by now 

Those eyes I tried to capture 

They are lost to me now forever 

They smile for someone else 

And so this had to be 

Painted from memory 

She is gone, and I must accept it 

She is lost to me now 

But I can`t look away just yet though 

She smiles for someone else 

And so this had to be 

Painted from memory 

Funny, now I can see 

How looks can be deceiving
