Evan Greer - Paint The Day Lyrics

Submitted by: Dakota (#3749)
Current Rating: None
a blue bottle floats on a yellow pond,
the sun watches as the children play,
and she smiles as she thinks to herself:
“i painted a beautiful day.”
“i painted a beautiful day.”

workglove man out there on the street,
thinks that his lonely life has got him beat,
little does he know, there’s a man round the bend,
looking for a friend.
looking for a friend.

(chorus)
and this old world, it ain’t so bad after all.
there'll still be spring and winter,
there'll still be apples in the fall,
and the leaves’ll turn, and the sun will burn.
and we’ll be all right after all.
we’ll be all right after all.
we’ll be all right after a---ll.
we’ll be all right after all.

and a mirror still shows you
what it wants you to see,
today a little more of the world
became mostly free,
and the brown-eyed boy
climbed out from under his bed,
he has found a friend.
he is his own friend.

and this song it ain’t no metaphor,
ain’t got nothin’ to do with the war,
no, i’m just lookin’ back and sayin’ “hey,”
“i painted a beautiful day”
“i painted a beautiful day.”

this old world, it ain’t so bad after all.
there will still be spring and winter,
there will still be apples in the fall.
and the leave’s turn, and the sun will burn,
and i’ll be ridin on the back of an earthworm.
free as a salesman as my hair squirms,
an annelid desperado, on my way,
to buy some paint for a brand new day.
