You Paint Your Picture Lyrics - Singles - Steve Cradock

You paint your picture quickly 

Not guided by the hour 

Instinctively believe it 

While I work at it for hours 

You hope that it comes quickly 

And you hope that it will dazzle 

Your mind is not on reaching 

The games the road you travel 

I'm silent like a shadow 

My lovelight tenders embers 

The blank pages lying fallow 

Are for love songs of tomorrow 

We travel all so closely 

Revolution choice of weapon 

All looking for our future 

While we moan below our curfew 

So I'll take you to the country 

With a picnic full of treasure's 

Disguised and blinded slightly 

Playing games for pleasures only 

Where we'll paint our picture slowly 

Not guided by the hour 

And leave the gates wide open 

For all the other lovers
