[Verse 1]
In my palms—a brush
A faint trace of dreams
In the silence of the night
I gather light

Your features
Through the cold of the days
I carefully
Keep them within me

[Pre-Chorus]
And if this world
Is shrouded in darkness I will still find
Your face, always

[Chorus]
I’ll paint You with tenderness
(I’ll paint You)
I’ll paint You with tenderness
And I won’t let go
I’ll paint You with tenderness
(I’ll paint You)
So that with Me
You’ll be

[Verse 2]
On the old window
Raindrops are sleeping
I cherish within myself
Your quiet gaze

No words are needed
No walls are needed
I recognize myself
I walk into captivity

[Pre-Chorus]
And if the night suddenly
Turns to ice
I will warm you
With my warmth

[Chorus]
I will paint you with tenderness
(I will paint you)
I will paint you with tenderness
And I won’t let you go
I will paint you with tenderness
(I will paint you)
So that with me
You will be

[Bridge]
Let my voice be broken
And let the trail disappear
I will still
Reach the bright horizons

Without loud phrases
Without unnecessary words
I will preserve
Your love [Chorus]
I will paint you with tenderness
(I will paint you)
I will paint you with tenderness
And I won’t let you go
I will paint you with tenderness
(I will paint you)
So that you
Will be with me
