Art of Me
Kashmir Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She made art of me
She made my day
The Spanish way

People came to see
The art of me
The disagree
Between you and I

Can never walk
Nor even talk
I'm bound to hang
On this masterpiece
I'll never find
Within my mind, ...ind, ...ind

I was just a boy
She acted like decoy
And I became her toy

After shaking hands
Captured by the glance
Impressed by all the fans
By all the fans, by all the fans, by all the fans

I had never felt so weird before
When she left me hanging on the wall
All the love she gave to me came through her hands
All the love she gave to me came through her hands

Oh, I had a lovely woman back in all the early days
But I was crying she sailed away left the day
I found another on the train but she was in a haze
She had lost everything that she had earned on her lays
I got a job in a cafe behind the bar
But I was fired, took it all too far, too far

Too much hip
Got the pink slip
Bought myself a razor
Cut off the red feb
Started jogging the next day
Just to get in a good shape
Looked at the trees, looked at the good babes
The good babes they were everywhere
But there was only one that I really wanted to get near, get near

She put me on a wheel-barrow
Drove me to the gate
Could not escape
Much too late
the gate was real narrow
So she carried me home, carried me home, carried me home

I had never felt so weird before
When she left me hanging on the wall




All the love she gave to me came through her hands
All the love she gave to me came through her hands

She made art of me
She turned me into a work of art


She made my day
She made me happy


The Spanish way
In the style of the Spanish


People came to see
They came to look


The art of me
The artwork of myself


The disagree
The difference of opinion


Between you and I
Between us


Can never walk
I cannot move on my own


Nor even talk
I cannot speak


I'm bound to hang
I am suspended in the air


On this masterpiece
On this work of art


I'll never find
I will never discover


Within my mind, ...ind, ...ind
Within my thoughts


I was just a boy
I was young


She acted like decoy
She pretended to be something she was not


And I became her toy
And she used me


After shaking hands
After we introduced ourselves


Captured by the glance
Drawn in by her gaze


Impressed by all the fans
I was awed by all her supporters


By all the fans, by all the fans, by all the fans
By all of her followers


Oh, I had a lovely woman back in all the early days
I used to have a beautiful girlfriend in the past


But I was crying she sailed away left the day
But I was sad when she left


I found another on the train but she was in a haze
I met someone else on a train, but she was confused


She had lost everything that she had earned on her lays
She had lost everything she had gained through her efforts


I got a job in a cafe behind the bar
I found work in a café, working as a bartender


But I was fired, took it all too far, too far
But I was let go, I went too far


Too much hip
Too much attitude


Got the pink slip
I got fired


Bought myself a razor
I bought a razor


Cut off the red feb
I cut my hair


Started jogging the next day
I began running the next day


Just to get in a good shape
To get fit


Looked at the trees, looked at the good babes
I looked at the trees and attractive women


The good babes they were everywhere
Attractive women were everywhere


But there was only one that I really wanted to get near, get near
But there was only one I was truly attracted to


She put me on a wheel-barrow
She placed me in a wheelbarrow


Drove me to the gate
She brought me to the gate


Could not escape
I could not get away


Much too late
It was too late


the gate was real narrow
The gate was very narrow


So she carried me home, carried me home, carried me home
So she brought me back to her home


I had never felt so weird before
I had never experienced such a strange feeling


When she left me hanging on the wall
When she left me suspended on the wall


All the love she gave to me came through her hands
All the love she showed me was expressed through her actions


All the love she gave to me came through her hands
All the love she extended to me was conveyed through her gestures
