Water Colors Lyrics - Between The Lines - Janis Ian

I remember photographs 

Watercolors of the past 

He turned and said - you ask much of me 

Then, when we'd made our peace 

We lay between the sheets 

He turned and said - I set you free 

Go on, be a hero, be a photograph 

Make your own myths 

Christ, I hope they last longer than mine 

Wider than the sky we measure time by 

Go on, be a hero, I set you free 

Your stagehand lovers have conquered me 

They'll send you carnations 

While smiling faces look on and applaud 

Go on, go on, go 'way from me

I said - do you wish me dead 

Lip service to books you've read 

Articles on how to bed a bird in flight 

You called it love - I called it greed 

You say - you take what you want 

I said - you get what you need 

Go on, be a hero, be a man 

Make your own destiny if you can 

Go find a fence, locate a shell 

And hide yourself 

Go on, go to hell, go away from me 

I need no charity 

He said come unto me 

I am beauty 

I am the light 

Come unto me 

Hold the darkness and stay the night 

I am wonder, I am the heart's delight 

Tomorrow we'll fight
