Painted In You

PAINTED IN YOU - Written by Carroll Bryant


I stare at the clock
Time ticks away
It doesn’t like to leave much behind

Dancing with memories
They always see through me
Looking at life through the blind

Looking at life and I find

That maybe I’m crazy
There’s no explanation
For all the things lost in my heart

There’s too many reasons
Why I can’t believe in
What don’t kill you just tears you apart

What didn’t kill me just tore me apart

She keeps on talking as I keep on walking
Down a road painted in blue
She plays with the blame as the tears fall like rain
Never trusting my lies were the truth
All that she’s after is love and the laughter
I could have given that to you
The pieces all shatter as I watch them scatter
Down a road painted in blue
Down a road painted in you

Damn this cold winter
I don’t understand it
Why it’s so strange in my head

Reliving the moment
You apparently stolen
Right from the warmth of my bed

Right from the place where I bled

She keeps on talking as I keep on walking
Down a road painted in blue
She plays with the blame as the tears fall like rain
Never trusting my lies were the truth
All that she’s after is love and the laughter
I could have given that to you
The pieces all shatter as I watch them scatter
Down a road painted in blue
Down a road painted in you

So maybe I’m crazy
There’s no explanation
For all the things lost in my heart

There’s too many reasons
Why I can’t believe in
What don’t kill you just tears you apart

What didn’t kill me just tore me apart

She keeps on talking as I keep on walking
Down a road painted in blue
She plays with the blame as the tears fall like rain
Never trusting my lies were the truth
All that she’s after is love and the laughter
I could have given that to you
The pieces all shatter as I watch them scatter
Down a road painted in blue
Down a road painted in you
