lyrics

In her studio she works so diligently
Preferring solitude, with a brush in hand and a pile of cds
The kitchen window is a spring of inspiration
The same scenes bathed in different light
Depending on the time of the day
Or the month of the year
Or the weather

The sky was painted indigo
She imbued it with a subtle glow
The shimmer of the sun on the edges of clouds
Speaks to me but not to the crowds
I would be proud to call it my own
Display it at home

She ran a booth at the community market
Next to the one with the artisan soaps
Nicely in the shade with a blanket of grass in front of the topiaries
The folks come and go but no one lingers for long
Are they disinterested or simply not paying attention?
Or do their tastes differ from my own?
All I know is I'm enthralled by the masterwork I find before me

The sky was painted indigo
She imbued it with a subtle glow
The motion of the breeze captured in the leaves
From the grass blades to the trees
Held the key to my enjoyment

The sky was painted indigo
She imbued it with a subtle glow
The shimmer of the sun on the edges of clouds
Speaks to me but not to the crowds
I would be proud to call it my own
Display it at home
