Canvas of ages.

The stage is hers

Brush away what's stray

Add a finishing touch.

The rapture cold as a pearl.

Hide the doubt that cries out within her.  

                     F#m                  
Stripped bare beneath all the layers

Would you recognize the girl lying there?

Sought after trapped like a pearl,

         G                             Bm     
Now the portrait has captured the girl.
