I'll take your days
I'll take your darkest days
I'll take your days
I'll take your dark days

And inside your painting
There I'll be
Inside your painting
I'm cadmium yellow
I'm walking across the green

I'll take your days
I'll take your darkest days
I'll take your days
I'll take your dark days

And inside your painting
Is a blue trapeze
Inside your painting
You're playing harmonica

The sky is vermilion, the sun is sienna
Another chartreuse day
The landscape is shimmering
Outside of Vienna doing a tour jete

I'll take your days
(I'll take your days)
I'll take your darkest days
I'll take your days
(I'll take your days)
I'll take your dark days

And inside your painting
Is Henri Matisse
Inside your painting
We're living in France
And I'm fond of your fantasies
