Adding the Blue

Adding The Blue - Chrissie Hynde
Everybody's asking where did you go

This gonna be my masterpiece

The paint's not even dry yet oh no

I could trace the outline of a shadow

I need blood and breath

To mix my colours

Where did you go

After you promised me a portrait
Took off your clothers held a pose

Drawing youour arms your hands and vens and fingers and your Lips

Broken nose

On your eyes so just stare into the distance
Please don't move

Whatever you do

While I'm adding the blue

I know I'm not monet or van gogh

I can't draw like S Clay Wilson

You got insede the brush
That chips with red

I can't draw from memories or photos

I need blood and breath

But you left me nothing

Where did you go

After you promised me a portrait
Took off your clothers held a pose

Drawing youour arms your hands and vens and fingers and your lips

Broken nose

On your eyes so just stare into the distance
Please don't move
Whatever you do

While I'm adding the blue

Closed this chapter yesterday
Take this page and throw it away

Fill the holes in
Sand the wall

You were never here at all

The warmth where someone never stood
Promises were never good
The smell of human sweat and tears
A passing thought
The paing year baby
Where did you go

After you promised me a portrait
Took off your clothers held a pose

Drawing youour arms your hands and vens and fingers and your lips

Broken nose

On your eyes so just stare into the distance
Please don't move
Whatever you do

While I'm adding the blue

While I'm adding the blue

While I'm adding the blue
