make the love paint the picture write the song
"...then there was this one night I noticed a tree
that stood by itself about an hour up north
and I could picture her holding on to the limb
wearing a summer dress and a grin, swinging back and forth
talkin' about the breeze, how easy it is
to leave all the worries in the back seat
teach me please, I need the abilities to live
silly me, I tried to measure it by what I can give
but she didn't need anything, just a pair of beers
some strong fingers, and someone to share the tears
read the fear, feeling it, inadequate
now let's make believe that I can handle it..."
"Feel the flow of the fluid as I swim through it to free my soul
Push up that came without the glove dumb the pain
The magic from up above what it does to the brain
Make the love paint the picture write the song"
