Wang Chung - The Flat Horizon lyrics

(wang chung) I wanna paint your portrait in bright color I wanna paint the lines in red and blue I wanna make your eyes appear like starlings Saying, "darling, i love you!" I wanna set your face upon a landscape I wanna show the love and toil and sweat I wanna show your beauty like a crystal In an all-night launderette Chorus: Oh this line is the flat horizon And you are the shape on the left Oh this line is the flat horizon And this is the sun in the sky Oh this line is the flat horizon And makes the great divide Between heaven and angels And earth and men I wanna show what lies beneath the surface In little squares of purple, green and gold So everyone can see their own reflection In the mirror of your soul I wanna paint your arrogance and beauty I wanna paint the way you laugh at me I wanna paint the world in which i see you Fixed for all eternity Repeat chorus I wanna paint your portrait in bright color I wanna paint your personality I wanna show the world just how i see you I wanna show the world just how i see you You know that only i can guarantee you Precious immortality Precious immortality Repeat chorus
