John Waite - Masterpiece Of Loneliness lyrics

Well I come home in the evening To the same old house alone And in the silence of these empty rooms I take shelter from the storm But I bought a paint box And some brushes to pa** the time Since you've been gone It's a portrait of a broken man And the colours always run A figure in a landscape It's a work of art, you'll see A figure in a landscape It's a masterpiece of loneliness, that's me Well I climb the stairs in this haunted house To find your spirit everywhere With the bright stars on the rooftops And my old friend the moon is there But I can't quite get the colours right See I'm reaching for the deepest blue It's a one man show, I'm free again But still belong to you Chorus And I stand there in the kitchen light With your ghost and memories Got what I wanted I got my freedom But I miss you still Chorus
