Painted From Memory - Trijntje Oosterhuis
Such a picture of loveliness
Didn't you notice the difference
Doesn't it look like he could speak
Those eyes I try to capture
They are lost to me forever
They smile for someone else
Funny how looks can be deceiving
But he's not easily painted from memory
You'd think that I would know by now
Those eyes I try to capture
They are lost to me forever
They smile for someone else
And so this had to be painted from memory
He is gone and I must accept it
He is lost to me now
But I can't look away just yet though
He smiles for someone else
Funny how looks can be deceiving
And so this had to be painted from memory
Funny how looks can be deceiving
And so this had to be painted from memory
