New Paint on the Wall

[Verse 1]

Took the tape down off my wall where your pictures used to hang

Bought a color called "wide open" from the paint store down the road

Rolled it on in one long stroke and watched the old wall disappear

Funny how a gallon can can make a heart feel light as air

I kept the frame but not the face, I kept the girl but not the ache

I'm not the same shade I was in June, no

[Chorus]
