the painter - bandini lyrics

Loading...

wrapping up old memories
packing them in cardboard boxes
leave them by the river
before the house crumbles down

outside in the cold ground
they cut a christmas tree
will have to wait until summer
to disappear with the wind

now they’re singing songs of peace and joy
am i the only one having to look up the words?

so i get out and get some money
it’s about time i got away
but nothing seems real
i’m falling out of line

even birds at night
even my friends
even my family
seem far when they’re near

days grow long and nights never end
stars are just sparkles of a bonfire night
and no peace i’ll find even in my dreams
sometimes…
i wish i was a painter
so i could paint this blues away

my body is tired
my face is growing old
nothing out there
i see the road but not its end

i’m a box full of letters
received or never sent
my mind is full of dreams
bigger than my head

while a voice keeps on singing
love isn’t enough
or maybe
you couldn’t love anyone

now i work day and night at the same old bar
oh i wish you’d come and see me for christmas time

walking a lonely road home
under blue lights
keep on chasing feelings
when nothing seems right
your perfume in the room
seems to never fade away
but if i get through the winter
maybe in spring, it will be ok

now they’re putting up reindeers
down by lower marsh
where our footprints
have been covered by snow

i turn the lights off and hide in my dreams tonight
where maybe you’ll come and see me
and by then i’ll be a painter
and i’ll paint your blues away

wrapping up old memories
packing them in cardboard boxes
leave them by the river
watching them slide away
