lyrics

If I could sing you I would © Tony King 2011

If I could sing you, it would be an amazing song
Incongruous parts that were born to belong
Tom Waits howling from Chet Baker’s boat
Jeff Buckley’s rubbing wings with Eva Cassidy as their voices meet and float

If I could sing you I would, If I could sing you I would

If I could paint you, it would be amazing art
A crazy palette of improbable parts.
Van Gogh’s luminous starry nights
& Picasso’s early blue and the way Cezanne made a dance out of the light

If I could paint you I would, If I could paint you I would

I feel like a caveman with primitive tools
Trying to copy an amazing jewel

If I could build you it would be an amazing plan
The ultimate puzzle for architectural man
The top of the Chrysler & audacity of Lloyd Wright
A straw bale home and Santorini domes when seen in the full moon light

If I could build you I would
If I could paint you I would
If I could sing you I would
If I could build you I would
If I could paint you I would
If I could sing you I would

about

Beautifully Mad image

Beautifully Mad Sydney, Australia

Breathtaking original music reminiscent of the beauty of James Taylor, some honey from Melody Gardot, a lyrical spice of Cohen washed down with some Waits-like humour. A musical flame that licks at the heels of Folk and Jazz
