You Don’t Paint the Picture
I see us hanging
Up and down the hall
Above the fireplace
On the wall
Happiness was ours
For so many years
But I can’t look at them
Through my tears
Yeah we’ve had some troubles
But we’ve made it through
I remember more joy
The bad times very few
Now you’re telling everyone
I put you through some hell
You don’t paint the picture
Very well
To hear the way you tell it
I must have tortured you
Your everyday a nightmare
I didn’t have a clue
I guess all our love
Was only a lie
My fantasy
As inside you cried
Yeah we’ve had some troubles
But we’ve made it through
I remember more joy
The bad times very few
Now you’re telling everyone
I put you through some hell
You don’t paint that picture
Very well
I’ll keep the images I have----------- Bridge
If only to stay sane
You can saddle me
Saddle me with blame
Yes we’ve had some troubles
But we’ve made it through
I remember more joy
The bad times very few
Now you’re telling everyone
I put you through some hell
Well you don’t paint the picture
Very well
No you don’t paint that picture
Very well
