In the Artist's Mind
Tune: Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough (Patty Smyth)
In the artist’s mind, there are treasured times, she remembers from long ago
All the friends she knew, land of gray and blue, and this magic she decides to show
She paints children laughing, playing in the sun,
Living out their days of youth, before their time here is done
CHORUS:
She remembers her summers that went by too fast,
Please hold onto today, it will soon be the past
Like a picture that’s framed so secure in your mind,
You’ll look back at it time after time
In this cherished place, there’s an old friend’s face, gone untainted by the brush of time
Turning then she sees, her Tap family, and that special world she’s left behind
She can hear them laughing, calling out her name,
Wanting her to join them in her summer home again
CHORUS
And she can’t return, that’s a lesson that many a camper has learned,
How those years slip by, she recaptures her past, with a tear in her eye
CHORUS
You’ll look back at it time after time
