Caught me lookin, you start smiling
You're eyes so blue, red lips inviting
like water colors in a rush
you move round my mind like an artist's brush

Chorus
Oh girl I can't tell Picasso from Van Gogh
and I ain't never studied art
But I paint strokes of love straight from my soul
and you're my work of heart.

Look at me now, starin at you
the background scene, years of love and truth
famous paintings, and magazines
can't capture this picture of you I see.

Chorus
Oh girl I can't tell Picasso from Van Gogh
and I ain't never studied art
But I paint strokes of love straight from my soul
and you're my work of heart.

The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up
spaces of consciousness and resistance; to language oppressions; to
re-language historie

This is great, Ethan, especially the chorus!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.
