Painted by Numbers Songtext
von The Sounds

Could I act like you, and put a smile on my face
Not even for a second would I lie to myself
Too many things are missing, and there′s a tear in my eye
It's not a question or an answer, but it will change your mind

We′ll be the same tomorrow
'Cause we've all been painted by numbers
We′re dancin′ as we borrow
You said it was love, I said I'd like you to be mine

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na

I couldn′t act like you, but I can love like you do
Between us, there is something I can't explain it to you


We′ll be the same tomorrow
'Cause we′ve all been painted by numbers
We're dancin' as we borrow
You said it was love, I got what I need to get by

We′ll be the same tomorrow
′Cause we've all been painted by numbers
We′re dancin' as we borrow
You said it was love, I said I′d like you to be mine

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, na-na-na

We'll be the same tomorrow
′Cause we've all been painted by numbers (painted by numbers)
We're dancin′ as we borrow
I sing a song for sorrow (I sing a song for sorrow)
′Cause we've all been painted by numbers
We′re dancin' as we borrow
You said it was love, I got what I need to get by
