Take the train and head up north, leave behind the city smoke A century in black and white will slowly fade into countryside The village is paradise, an artist's secret isle And there you are, standing afar And there you are, painting the stars Knocked next door, sought turpentine, took you downstairs and bought you wine I left Spain, you the Low Lands, the two of us with clammy hands We drag easels in the sun, the summer's just begun And here I am, I do what I can And here I am, a lateral man How can you paint winds, make clouds and skies spin, see it all through and beyond? I sit on the same fields, I hear the same birds sing, but all that I do is just wrong You looked at my canvas with muted eyes, said a few words I can't memorize The cross fell down, I pulled it up, my story ends where yours just starts We drag easels in the sun, the summer's just begun And here I am, I do what I can And here I am, a lateral man
