Painting the same picture of the frame of your face Hanging dozens of portraits on my wall And yet I can't seem to place a name to that Delightful lack of grace, unable to trace your smile That I continue to chase So lovely was that first day when I finally learned your name A lie that all of this was just for your sake "CAMELLIA", say it like a spell Over and over again Hope that we never say farewell "CAMELLIA, CAMELLIA" Oh, by my stars! I'll take all that you want and make things right I'll sand you down to a polished white So that way all perfections turn up so much more bright A work of art that will never decease So that way my heartbeat may truly know "peace" It's set in ivory, my every hope and dream All I could ever need, right in front of me A canvas so pretty, blank as can be I'll decorate it as I please Looking forward to another day with you I notice a shard of glass obstructing my view of a Fantasy that only I can really taste Distorting all the progress that I continue to chase So lovely was that first day when I finally saw your face A lie that I would break the glass separating our good grace A debate of the mind Go blind with envy for the night It's set in ivory, my every hope and dream All I could ever need, right in front of me A canvas so pretty, blank as can be I'll decorate it as I please
