An Architect's Dream (2018 Remaster)

"If I can lighten the browns and the sand

And rub it right into where the sky's reaching down

So it's... like the edge of a mirror...

But this blue needs to be darker, much darker...

Maybe if I can just blend it a bit...

Yes, that might do it... almost like that"

Watching the painter painting

And all the time, the light is changing

And he keeps painting

That bit there

It was an accident

But he's so pleased

Mmm, it's the best mistake he could make

And it's my favourite piece, it's just great

The flick of a wrist twisting down to the hips

So the lovers begin

With a kiss in a tryst

Just a smudge

But what it becomes in his hands

Curving and sweeping

Rising and reaching

I could feel what he was feeling

Watching the painter painting

And lines like these have got to be

An architect's dream

It's always the same

Whenever he works on a pavement

Watching the painter painting

It starts to rain

And all the time the light is changing
