《Paint by Numbers》歌词

[00:00:00] Paint By Numbers - Al Stewart (阿尔·史蒂伍德)

[00:00:25] When all the help in the world won't get you by

[00:00:31] When all the friends that you lean on let you down

[00:00:35] You'll wonder why

[00:00:38] I see you there with your painting box

[00:00:40] And your oils and brushes and your artist's smocks

[00:00:44] What'll you do if the Muse gets lost

[00:00:46] When I'm gone

[00:01:00] You painted me in the way you said you knew

[00:01:06] I don't believe that I saw myself

[00:01:09] In anything you drew

[00:01:12] I say you never quite caught it right

[00:01:15] You say you see me in a different fight

[00:01:18] What'll you do with your black and white

[00:01:21] When I'm gone

[00:01:27] You paint by numbers

[00:01:30] I never noticed it before

[00:01:33] You paint by numbers

[00:01:36] It's just a closing of an open door

[00:01:41] When you're looking round

[00:01:44] You won't see me no more

[00:01:46] You paint by numbers

[00:03:59] Staying here in this room just makes me pole

[00:04:05] I never really could fat into your geometric scale

[00:04:11] I see you measure my profile up

[00:04:14] And you mix your paints in a broken cup

[00:04:17] What'll you do if the brush gets stuck

[00:04:20] When I'm gone

[00:04:26] You paint by numbers

[00:04:29] I never noticed it before

[00:04:32] You paint by numbers

[00:04:35] It's just a closing of an open door

[00:04:40] When you're looking round

[00:04:43] You won't see me no more

[00:04:45] You paint by numbers
