Mani Orrason - I Paint a Picture Lyrics

I paint a picture
Of a girl so unspoiled
Giving me nothing
But filling me with hope
Blonde hair and Ray Bans
Sandals and shorts
Her eyes remind me
Of waves crashing on fjords
I know she's a dreamer
She's told me herself
I know she's a lover
She loved somebody else
But what can I do
Oh I just sing to myself
And as the days pass
More clearly I see
I never knew you
And you never knew me
You were an angel
In the eyes of my past
You're now a stranger
And that curse it will last
I know she's a dreamer
She's told me herself
I know she's a lover
She loved somebody else
But what can I do
Oh I just sing to myself

I paint a picture
Of a girl so unspoiled
Giving me nothing
But filling me with hope
Blonde hair and Ray Bans
Sandals and shorts
Her eyes remind me
Of waves crashing on fjords
I know she's a dreamer
She's told me herself
I know she's a lover
She loved somebody else
But what can I do
Oh I just sing to myself
And as the days pass
More clearly I see
I never knew you
And you never knew me
You were an angel
In the eyes of my past
You're now a stranger
And that curse it will last
I know she's a dreamer
She's told me herself
I know she's a lover
She loved somebody else
But what can I do
Oh I just sing to myself
