Paint a pretty painting all in red Surrender Dream a little dream until you're dead
And yet again I find as all resolve unwinds To leave me cast away from grace I'm left to face the truth with all my thoughts reduced To broken vows and wrinkled lace I've grown to hate your smile So pure and infantile, incomprehensibly naive But to resist It is a lesson in futility
Once more the want of you Only you Consume(s) my fantasies through the night So I cry Out your name And I sigh Out in vain Another poem to losing my mind
Paint a pretty painting all in red Surrender Dream a little dream until you're dead Your tender lips are all I see A crimson vision cursing my destiny Never ask a question never tell No yearning Fall in love and you fall into hell Is there no turning back For no one knows but God above My love
