Lyrics
I have deep dark tan lines. It’s the 3rd day of fun
There’s a bright wash of color over the ocean
Tequila sunrises in a bar with a view,
It’s the first time ever I saw your face”
Your hair falls out of place onto a noble brow
You’re chiseled like the David shoulders broad and proud
You sweep through the bar like a thick brush stroke of paint
Then you’re next to me, buzzin on your tongue is my name
I've got a good first impression
You’re indelible like a Van Gogh
Impressive like a Monet, Manet, a Renoir
From a distance you’re a work of art
I like you where you sit
I won’t let this go too far
Come too close and it all falls apart
But from a distance you’re a work of art
The blinds are drawn as the sun sets
I’ve learned a little about you now that I could already bet
Yet lines about leaving at the start of the night
Start to bleed and to blur crashing into neon lights
Please don’t tell me more than I want to know
Marriage, kids, mortgages, or company growth
Just leave me with this feeling in a room with a view
The way I’d like to paint a portrait of you
I've got a good first impression
You’re indelible like a Van Gogh
Impressive like a Monet, Manet, a Renoir
From a distance you’re a work of art
I like you where you sit
I won’t let this go too far
Come too close and it all falls apart
But from a distance you’re a work of art
I’m leaving now to walk away entranced
I’m leaving now with your picture still intact
I’m leaving now while we’re still both amused
I’m leaving now while you’re still my muse
I've got a good first impression
You’re indelible like a Van Gogh
Impressive like a Monet, Manet, a Renoir
From a distance you’re a work of art
I like you where you sit
I won’t let this go too far
Come too close and it all falls apart
But from a distance you’re a work of art
...from a distance….Stay at a distance…
From a distance….You’re ….a work…. of art
