White canvas

Stories are painted
in lines on your face
misunderstandings and little mistakes
a chance to start over
is all that it takes – you know if you do;
your life is a canvas, the colours are you

follow me out, follow me round
let’s make the road up as we go along
just as we planned
you want to believe it, you know that it’s true;
your life is a canvas, the colours are you

you cannot erase them;
the words that were said -
just paint them over inside of your head
all that is needed;
you know you must make just one leap of faith
everything else will fall into place

follow me out, follow me round
let’s make it up and go back
to where we began
all that is needed is one leap of faith -
everything else will fall into place

anywhere you’ll ever go
everyone you’ll ever know
you may never find it
everyone you’ll ever see
anyone you choose to be
how you look will decide
what you see

follow the moon
follow the sun
let’s make a deal this time
to stay with the plan
all that is needed is one leap of faith
everything else will fall into place

stories are painted
in the lines of your face
