The Records - Paint Her Face Lyrics
There on a mondayWhen a train came into townShe said she was an artistTried to get an autographNever had a photographJust a memoryOh, I triedYes, I triedTo paint her faceAll the colors were brightWell, I triedYes, I triedTo paint her faceBut I couldn't getThe shape quite rightTried to send a letterI had to know againTried to check the phonebookDidn't even know her nameNever had a photographJust a memoryHow I triedYes, I triedTo paint her faceAll the colors were brightWell, I triedYes, I triedTo paint her faceBut I couldn't getThe shape quite rightI remember her eyesWere big and brightI'm sure her nose was smallI knew her lips were ruby redI want her picture on my wallGetting her complexionWas harder then I thoughtI couldn't find the colorsAmongst all the paints I boughtIf I had a photographNot a memoryHow I triedYes, I triedTo paint her faceAll the colors were brightWell, I triedYes, I triedTo paint her faceBut I couldn't getThe shape quite rightTriedTried to paint her faceAll the colors were brightWell, I triedYes, I triedTo paint her faceBut I couldn't getThe shape quite right
