The Painter

All day, watching the river go All night, dreaming beneath the window Moonlight making the glaciers blue The avenues Under the dunes My old life is through I'm finally free, but it ain't easy I'm finally free, but it ain't easy (Come on) I paint clouds up above the war A port town twinkling on the far shore Forests swallowing up the smoke Abandoned homes The eyes of storms That world is gone I'm finally free, but it ain't easy I'm finally free, but it ain't easy (Take it easy) Oooo, it ain't easy We lost our home Survived the storm That world is gone We're finally free, but it ain't easy We're finally free, yeah, but it ain't easy
