Lyrics

[00:15.860] the painter stood
[00:18.230] before her work
[00:21.250] she looked around every where
[00:26.690] she saw the pictures and she painted them
[00:32.360] she picked the colors from the air
[00:38.469] green to green
[00:41.269] red to red
[00:43.689] yellow to yellow
[00:45.589] in the light
[00:49.729] black to black
[00:51.309] when the evening comes
[00:55.519] blue to blue
[00:56.979] in the night
[01:11.359] it's a long road
[01:17.489] behind me
[01:23.199] it's a long road
[01:28.709] ahead
[01:31.349] if you follow every dream
[01:36.639] you might get lost
[01:42.489] if you follow every dream
[01:48.439] you might
[01:50.149] get
[01:51.569] lost.
[02:03.329] she towed the line
[02:06.799] she held her end up
[02:08.870] she did the work of too many
[02:14.600] but in the end
[02:16.680] she fell down
[02:20.140] before she got up again
[02:25.829] i keep my friends eternally
[02:31.590] we leave our tracks in the sound
[02:37.630] some of them are with me now
[02:43.110] some of them can't be found
[02:58.800] it's a long road behind me
[03:10.410] and i miss you now
[03:18.550] if you follow every dream
[03:23.920] you might get lost
[03:29.510] if you follow every dream
[03:35.550] you might
[03:37.140] get
[03:38.620] lost.
