Lyrics: Soundtrack Artists. Portrait Of A Girl.


Portrait of a girl
Canvas of Ages
The stages, hers
Demure and practiced beauty
Hold them all enthralled

Portrait of a girl
Object of woman
A pose and they
They says she's fairest of them all

Paint her in
Watching one color end and one begin
Brush away what's stray
Add a finishing touch
The rapture cold as a pearl
Now the portrait has captured the girl
Now the portrait has captured the girl

Portrait of a girl
Painted illusion

She play her part
She sees that she's a work of art

Paint her in
Watching one color end and one begin
Brush away what's stray
There's disguise in her eyes
Add shadows that dance across her skin
Hide the doubt that cries out within her
Stripped bare beneath all the layers
Would you recognize the girl lying there?
Sought after trapped like a pearl
Now the portrait has captured the girl
Now the portrait has captured the girl

Daring you to fall
Fairest of them all
