On That Note: Kind of Like an Artist

Billy Ocean - "Color of Love"

"If I had to paint a picture
To show the world how true love can really be
I would use the brightest colours
To create a vision of harmony

"As a picture perfect painting
Of a love forever true"

And posed the pretty photograph?
Save her flowering and fair
The days to come, the days to share

Well, I'm gonna paint my picture
Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
All of the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
Yeah, well, you know grey is my favorite color
I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew Picasso
I would buy myself a grey guitar and play

 
Al Stewart, Year of the Cat


She comes out of the sun in a silk dress running
Like a watercolor in the rain
Don't bother asking for explanations
She'll just tell you that she came

In the year of the cat

 


Paint a picture of the days gone by
Write a letter with true love in every last line
Tie a little thread between your dreams and mine

“On That Note” is presented weekly on Cyclone Fanatic by @MeanDean, @CycloneRulzzz and cyclones500.

My first selection, connecting w/ thread title.

I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
