Paula Cole - Chiaroscuro lyrics
rate me
Goya and el grecogaugin and van gogh
Painted light in the darknesschiaroscuro
Imagine we were a painting
A woman and a man
Two lovers on a canvas
On is whiteone is black.
Darkness and light will be married tonight in chiaroscuro
Your body on mine - two colors combined in chiaroscuro
Vermeer and velazquezrembrandt and rousseau
Painted perfect unionchiaroscuro
The man and the woman
The knife and the spoon
The xylem and the phloem
The sun and the moon
Chorus
How we lived a secret life from racist eyes
You said I couldn't understand you anyway I tried
But in this moment togetherin our secret unity
Our skins become the still lifeour souls epiphany
