If I Were a Painter
words & music: JP Den Tex & Rob van Donselaar

If I were a painter
I’d paint it all blue
The heat of the summer
The riverwind too
Oh blue is a feeling
So hard to explain
Blue is the love that we spill Blue is the love that we spill Blue is the love that we spill In the rain
Spill in the rain

Sometimes I wonder
If you were to stay
Would that kill the magic Of this game that we play? Oh blue is a feeling
So hard to explain
Blue is the love that we spill Blue is the love that we spill Blue is the love that we spill In the rain

I’m not afraid of the city
I’m not afraid of that tugboat whistle As long as you’ll be
My baby tonight
For only you say
These blues are all right

If I were a painter
I’d paint it all blue
The clouds and the willows The sweet things you do
Oh blue is a feeling
So hard to explain
Blue is the love that we spill Blue is the love that we spill Blue is the love that we spill In the rain
Spill in the rain
