The Artist - Yusuf&Yusuf / Cat Stevens

[00:32.04]I know that you're an artist,
[00:32.72]but you're the hardest one to deal with.
[00:34.41]Everything that you conceal
[00:36.24]is revealed on your canvas.
[00:37.29]You find all of your ugly meanings
[00:38.46]in all of the things I find beautiful.
[00:39.54]Do you see the fall is coming?
[00:40.11]Come, I'm falling into you.
[00:41.07]You perceive all of these things
[00:41.67]I'd never have known.
[00:42.93]Love, will you turn off the lights?
[00:47.73]we're already home.
[00:48.33]You painted me in pastel,
[00:49.11]colors that don't tell of any boldness.
[00:51.63]That's the way you'd love to see me:
[00:53.52]so delicate, so weak, so little purpose.
[00:56.52]But your eyes are drawn of charcoal
[00:58.47]they're black, they're so cold, they're so imperfect.
[01:01.59]Because they see a sleeping world,
[01:02.37]where waking isn't worth it.
[01:03.63]You perceive all of these things
[01:06.27]that I'd never have known.
[01:08.16]Love, will you turn off the lights?
[02:29.37]We're already home
