|
Well, she's kind of like an artist |
|
Sittin' on the floor |
|
Never finishes, she abandons |
|
Never shows a soul |
|
And she's kind of like a movie |
|
Everyone rushes to see |
|
And no one understands it |
|
Sittin' in their seats |
|
She opens her mouth to speak and |
|
What comes out's a mystery |
|
Thought about, not understood |
|
She's achin' to be |
|
Well, she dances alone in nightclubs |
|
Every other day of the week |
|
People look right through her |
|
Baby doll, check your cheek |
|
And she's kind of like a poet |
|
Who finds it hard to speak |
|
Poems come so slowly |
|
Like the colors down a sheet |
|
She opens her mouth to speak and |
|
What comes out's a mystery |
|
Thought about, not understood |
|
She's achin' to be |
|
I've been achin' for a while now, friend |
|
I've been achin' hard for years |
|
Well, she's kind of like an artist |
|
Who uses paints no more |
|
You never show me what you're doing |
|
Never show a soul |
|
Well, I saw one of your pictures |
|
There was nothin' that |
|
I could see |
|
If no one's on your canvas |
|
Well, I'm achin' to be |
|
She closes her mouth to speak and |
|
And closes her eyes to see |
|
Thought about and only loved |
|
She's achin' to be, just like me |
