Chiaroscuro Lyrics

by Paula Cole

Goya and El Greco
Gogan and Vango
Painted light and darkness
Chiaroscuro

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e85783-paula_cole~chiaroscuro_lyrics.html ]
Imagine we were a painting
A woman and a man
Two lovers on the canvas
One is white and one is black

[Chorus:]
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight in Chiaroscuro
Your body on mine two colors combine in Chiaroscuro

Velmir and Valasqez
Rembrant and Ruso
Painted perfect union
Chiaroscuro
The man and the woman
The knife and the spoon
The zylem and the phloum
The sun and the moon

[Chorus:]
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight in Chiaroscuro
Your body on mine two colors combine in Chiaroscuro

How we lived a secret life from racist eyes
You said I wouldn't understand you any way i tried

In this moment together
In our secret unity
Our skins become a still life
Our souls epiphany

[Chorus (2x):]
