Portrait Lover
album and band name
from Henri by The Fire Fight
Can you see the light in my eyes?
Beyond this deep black iris that you know.
Can you hear the voices behind
The walls that leaves us sentimentally lonesome?
In a plain black dress with a purple lace
She graces the beat of a jazz ballet.
So come on dance now and don't you cry
And there ain't no place that I'd rather be,
Just you and I at the matinee.
With that look in your eyes.
Well I could be your everything.
You could be my everyone
I could be your special friend.
You could be my only one.
My skin is cold and I'm growing old,
A time has come that can't be foretold.
With a mind and a heart that breaks,
Though i gave all my best to you
Would someone be hear to tell
The stories that I wrote?
Though the world may have its idea of fame
Yet what's the point?
They can't remember your name.
Oh come on stop now, and don't you try.
But in the quiet beneath the trees,
Do you remember the days that were so beautiful
To me?
Well I could be your everything,
You could be my everyone.
I could be your special friend,
You could be my only one.
