Painters Sorrow versuri

Painters Sorrow lyrics by The Rough, Tumble

And I’ve been crying ‘bout how I don’t belong
It’s not a question, it isn’t something you haven’t heard before
Oh, maybe it’s an ancient ache
Or the moving of the blood
How long, how long, how long, how long?

And you’ve been saying you wish it was before
Maybe last November when I lost my temper ‘cause you’re always needing more
You miss it by an eyelash
Or it’s behind another door
How long, how long, how long, how long?

Why is the light never right in this room?
Colors are starting to run
Let me get closer
I want to get closer to you

And she stepped up to read our Tarot cards
She said all your waiting would bring reward of a pretty young thing along
Why did we act like strangers
And pretend we weren’t in love?
How long, how long, how long, how long?
How long, how long, how long, how long?

Why is the light never right in this room?
Colors are starting to run
Let me get closer and
I want to get closer and
We are a painter’s sorrow on a pale afternoon
Wanna get closer
I wanna get closer to you

Not for all the blue and white that falls in North New England
Can we paint what we don’t know

Why is the light never right in this room?
I wanna get closer
Why is the light never right in this room?
Colors are starting to run
I wanna get closer, why
Why can’t I get closer and
We are a painter’s sorrow on a pale afternoon
Why can’t I get closer and
I wanna get closer to you

Yeah, wanna get closer to you
