Portrait Of A Dream
Words & Music by Joe Cohen
© Joe Cohen 1982

Artist creating
Can you paint a painting of me?
Can you show me how I feel
Or are your eyes all you use to see?

I want to buy your empty canvas.
'Looks to me like it's all done.
You've captured all my lonliness.
Take a look and see...there is no one.

I love you dancer, gracing.
Would you dance with me once more?
My soul is just wasting.
See...it's dying on this floor?

No, I don't know how to move my feet,
But I can follow you along.
You've got all of my heart.
All I've got left is a song

And I've got an empty canvas.
It's getting pretty old.
I can take away your sadness.
Warm you when you're cold.

We're a symphony together.
We sing a song in harmony.
Would you stay with me forever?
Are your eyes all you use to see?

Are your eyes all you use to see?
