Water Colors Lyrics

I REMEMBER PHOTOGRAPHS

WATERCOLORS OF THE PAST

HE TURNED AND SAID, YOU ASK MUCH OF ME

THEN, WHEN WE'D MADE OUR PEACE

WE LAY BETWEEN THE SHEETS

HE TURNED AND SAID, I SET YOU FREE

GO ON, BE A HERO, BE A PHOTOGRAPH

MAKE YOUR OWN MYTHS

CHRIST, I HOPE THEY LAST

LONGER THAN MINE

WIDER THAN THE SKY

WE MEASURE TIME BY

GO ON, BE A HERO, I SET YOU FREE

YOUR STAGEHAND LOVERS HAVE CONQUERED ME

THEY'LL SEND YOU CARNATIONS

WHILE SMILING FACES LOOK ON AND APPLAUD

GO ON, GO ON, GO 'WAY FROM ME

I SAID, DO YOU WISH ME DEAD

LIP SERVICE TO BOOKS YOU'VE READ

ARTICLES ON HOW TO BED A BIRD IN FLIGHT

YOU CALLED IT LOVE

I CALLED IT GREEDJanis Ian - Water Colors - http://motolyrics.com/janis-ian/water-colors-lyrics.html

YOU SAY, YOU TAKE WHAT YOU WANT

I SAY, YOU GET WHAT YOU NEED

GO ON, BE A HERO, BE A MAN

MAKE YOUR OWN DESTINY IF YOU CAN

GO FIND A FENCE, LOCATE A SHELL

AND HIDE YOURSELF

GO ON, GO TO HELL, GO AWAY FROM ME

I NEED NO CHARITY

HE SAID, COME UNTO ME, I AM BEAUTY, I AM THE LIGHT

COME UNTO ME. HOLD THE DARKNESS AND STAY THE NIGHT

FOR I AM WONDER, I AM THE HEART'S DELIGHT

TOMORROW WE'LL FIGHT

COME ON COME ON, COME NEAR TO ME

COME BE MY FANTASY

WE'LL TALK IT OVER AGAIN SOMETIME

I'LL SEND YOU SOME FLOWERS

AND CHANGE YOUR MIND

BUT FOR TONIGHT, TURN OUT THE LIGHT

HOLD ME, COME ON, COME ON

AND SET ME FREE

COME BE MY FANTASY
