Lyrics

Goya and El Greco
Gauguin and Van Gogh
Painted light and darkness
Chiaroscuro
Imagine we were a painting
A woman and a man
Two lovers on the canvas
One is white, one is black
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight
In chiaroscuro
Your body on mine—two colors combine
In chiaroscuro
Vermeer and Velázquez
Rembrant and Rousseau
Painted perfect union
Chiaroscuro
The man and the woman
The knife and the spoon
The xylem and the phloem
The sun and the moon
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 anyway I tried
In this moment together
In our secret unity
Our skins become a still life
Our souls epiphany
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight
In chiaroscuro
Your body on mine—two colors combine
In chiaroscuro
Oh darkness and light will be married tonight
In chiaroscuro
Your body on mine—two colors combine
In chiaroscuro
