Jackson Browne The Painter Lyrics

The Painter Lyrics

We see him dancing in the morning
Stars depart the yawning sky
He`ll take the hour that is passing
And leave it in his lover`s eye
And if you want he`ll make it seem
As though you`re walking in his dream
A mystic sea

We hear him laughing in the shadows
As he smuggles in the sand
He`s found another kind of color
In the magic he has donned
And if you want he`ll take the time
To ask the sun and moon to rhyme
And then combine
He draws no lines between what he`s imagining
