Jackson Alan - You Don't Have to Paint Me a Picture lyrics

Her kiss was colder than I remembered

when we first said hello.

I guess the flame's now a little lower

I can feel you letting go.

You know the paint dries a little darker

than when you first put it on.

I guess your love's like some old cheap magic marker.

Said "forever", then it's gone.

But you don't have to paint me a picture

You don't have to say a thing at all

You don't have to paint me a picture

I can see the writing on the wall

When we first fell, we fell a long way.

Summer nights, and winter days.

Mountain sunrise, ocean sunsets, hand in hand in a haze.

Now it's cold, hard summer evenings and there's clouds on my sunrise.

But you don't have to smile and say you're happy, I can see what's in your eyes.

And you don't have to paint me a picture

you don't have to say a thing at all

You don't have to paint me a picture

I can see the writing on the wall

I can see the writing on the wall
