Painters (画家) - Jewel (珠儿)[00:00:00]

Eighty years an old lady now sitting on the front porch[00:00:10]

Watching the clouds roll by[00:00:17]

They remind her of her lover how he left her and of times long ago [00:00:19]

When she used to color carelessly painted his portrait[00:00:27]

A thousand times-or maybe just his smile-[00:00:32]

And she and her canvas would follow him wherever he would go[00:00:38]

'Cause I'm a painter and i want to paint you a lovely world[00:00:45]

A lovely world [00:00:51]

Oil streaked daisies covered the living room wall[00:01:03]

He put water-colored roses in her hair[00:01:10]

He said "Love I love you I want to give you mountains the sunshine the sunset too[00:01:14]

I just want to give you a world as beautiful as you are to me[00:01:26]

'Cause they were painters and they were painting themselves[00:01:35]

A lovely world [00:01:41]

So they sat down and made a drawing of their love they made it an art to live by[00:01:50]

They painted every passion every home created every beautiful child[00:01:58]

In the winter they were weavers of warmth in summer they were carpenters of love[00:02:07]

They thought blue prints were too sad so they made them yellow[00:02:14]

'Cause they were painters and they were painting themselves[00:02:21]

A lovely world [00:02:24]

Until one day the rain fell as thick as black oil[00:02:38]

And in her heart she knew something was wrong[00:02:44]

She went running through the orchard screaming [00:02:49]

'No God don't take him from me '[00:02:53]

But buy the time she got there she feared he already had gone[00:02:57]

She got to where he lay water-colored roses in his hands for her[00:03:09]

She threw them down screaming 'Damn you man don't leave me[00:03:21]

With nothing left behind but these cold paintings these cold portraits to remind me [00:03:25]

He said 'Love I leave but only a little try to understand[00:03:41]

I put my soul in this life we created with these four hands[00:03:54]

Love I leave but only a little this world holds me still[00:04:04]

My body may die now but these paintings are real '[00:04:13]

So many seasons came and many seasons went[00:04:40]

And many times she saw her loves face watering the flowers [00:04:44]

Talking to the trees and singing to his children[00:04:50]

And when the wind blew she knew he was listening [00:04:56]

And how he seamed to laugh along and how he seemed to hold her[00:05:00]

When she was crying[00:05:06]

'Cause they were painters and they were painting themselves[00:05:10]

A lovely world [00:05:13]

Eighty years an old lady now sitting on the front porch[00:05:28]

Watching the clouds roll by they remind her of her lover[00:05:34]

How he left her and of times long ago when she used to color carelessly [00:05:38]

Painted his portrait a thousand times or maybe just his smile [00:05:46]

And she and her canvas would follow him wherever he would go[00:05:54]

Yes she and her canvas still follow[00:05:59]

Because they are painters and they are painting themselves[00:06:06]

A lovely world[00:06:10]
