Gonna paint a picture
(alexander/badlees)
Gonna put it in a frame
So I can show you how I`m feelin`
Gonna paint a picture
Without having to explain
Gonna put it in a frame
And you can hang it from you ceiling
So i can show you how i`m feelin`
In your safe and happy home
Without having to explain
When you come to understand it
And you can hang it from your ceiling
You`ll know you`re not alone
In your safe and happy home
When you come to understand it
Once upon a time
You`ll know you`re not alone
We could speak our minds
Once upon a time
CHORUS
We could speak our minds
But now I don`t believe you gwendolyn
I don`t believe you`re all that strong
(chorus)
I don`t believe you know the dangers
But now i don`t believe you gwendolyn
Of this road you`re travlin` on
I don`t believe you`re all that strong
You`re always asking questions
I don`t believe you know the dangers
That you know the answers to
Of this road you`re travelin` on
Tell me please
You`re always asking questions
What do you want from me
That you know the answers to
Tell me please
Gonna write a song
What do you want from me
Gonna tell it like it is
And if you recognize yourself
Gonna write a song
I know you`re going to be pissed
Gonna tell it like it is
And if you call me on it
And if you recognize yourself
I`ll deny it through and through
I know you`re going to be pissed
Just like woody allen would
And if you call me on it
If he were in my shoes
I`ll deny it through and through
Just like woody allen would
Once upon a time
If he were in my shoes
I could speak my mind
Once upon a time
CHORUS
I could speak my mind
Gonna write a letter
(chorus)
Gonna mail it to myself
Sincerely and forever
Gonna write a letter
You and yours can go to hell
Gonna mail it to myself
Well, the I`ll put it in my pocket
Sincerely and forever
So when this all comes crashing down
You and yours can go to hell
I`ll have a way to show you
Well, then i`ll put it in my pocket
How long I`ve been wearing down
So when this all comes crashing down
I`ll have a way to show you
Once upon a time
How long i`ve been wearing down.
We could speak our minds
Once upon a time
