Painted from Memory — текст песни (Burt Bacharach)

Such a picture of loveliness

Didnt you notice the difference?

Doesnt it look like she could speak?

Those eyes I try to capture

They are lost to me forever

They smile for someone else

Funny, how looks can be deceiving

But shes not easily painted from memory

Youd think that I would know by now

Those eyes I try to capture

They are lost to me forever

They smile for someone else

And so this had to be painted from memory

She is gone and I must accept it

She is lost to me now

But I cant look away just yet though

She smiles for someone else

And so this had to be painted from memory

Funny, now I can see how looks can be deceiving
