Lyrics

I know a man not very well
Mostly from what I've heard tell
He lives alone in rented halls
With all his paintings on the walls
And he collects a TV shrine
You should see all the photographs
That he's had signed
His famous friends don't know his name
But it's on all the faces in the picture frames
He has the heart of an artist
The soul of a poet
In the factory break room
He sketches portraits
Of tired men sitting down
He sees beauty all around
He knew a girl who didn't stay
She's still in town but far away
Sometimes he smokes a pack a day
Thinking over what he'd say
And if you chance upon his face
You'll know that he's in another place
He can go there anytime
Where light and color are intertwined
He has the heart of an artist
The soul of a poet
In the factory break room
He sketches portraits
Of tired men sitting down
He sees beauty all around
He used to be on faculty
To college kids near Albany
For twenty years he taught them art
If you ask him what happened he'll read your
chart
And tell you what your stars say
It never hurts to know what'll come your way
He has the heart of an artist
The soul of a poet
In the factory break room
He sketches portraits
Of tired men sitting down
He sees beauty all around
In the factory break room
He's a tired man sitting down
Who sees beauty all around
