Paula Cole - Chiaroscuro lyrics
[Paula Cole - Chiaroscuro lyrics]
Painted light and darkness chiaroscuro
Imagine we were a painting a woman and a man
Two lovers on the canvas
One is white, one is black
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight
In chiaroscuro
Your body on mine two colors combine
In chiaroscuro
Vermeer and Velázquez rembrant and Rousseau
Painted perfect union chiaroscuro
The man and the woman
The knife and the spoon
The xylem and the phloem
The sun and the moon
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight
In chiaroscuro
Your body on mine two colors combine
In chiaroscuro
How we lived a secret life from racist eyes
You said I wouldn't understand
You anyway I tried
In this moment together in our secret unity
Our skins become a still life
Our souls epiphany
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight
In chiaroscuro
Your body on mine two colors combine
In chiaroscuro
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight
In chiaroscuro
Your body on mine two colors combine
In chiaroscuro
