While I'm Writing My Songs

I do not paint pictures, but I love to write songs Do not understand women so I'm living alone Sometimes I feel lonely and if it wears me down I pick up my guitar when the pain comes around Guess I'll be a drifter and a vagabond singer A lost romance lives on in the songs that I'm singing My storybook's closed don't know where I belong But you paint a new picture while I'm writing this song It used to be different but that's long ago Then you took off and left me to roll with the flow Some memories are vivid and some of them vague My guitar keeps me from going insane Your brush and palette are all that you need My songs and my guitar are all things to me Guess I'll be a drifter and a vagabond singer A lost romance lives on in the songs that I'm singing My storybook's closed don't know where I belong But you paint a new picture while I'm writing this song
