And I'm right by your side, Like a thief in the night I stand in front of a masterpiece. And I can't tell you why It hurts so much To be in love with the masterpiece. 'Cause after all Nothing's indestructible...
From the moment I first saw you All the darkness turned to light. An impressionistic painting, Tiny particles of light. It seem to me it's what you're like, The "Look but, please, don't touch me" type. And honestly it can't be fun To always be the chosen one.
And I'm right by your side, Like a thief in the night I stand in front of a masterpiece. And I can't tell you why It hurts so much To be in love with the masterpiece. 'Cause after all Nothing's indestructible, Nothing's indestructible, Nothing's indestructible, Nothing's indestructible...
