The Artist Lyrics

by Sara Bareilles

Draw my breath
Set down the canvas and take me instead
Would you consider me for thoughts unsaid?
Desires that deserve to be created

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e97190-sara_bareilles~the_artist_lyrics.html ]
There you are
Your idle hands create temptations I
Well if I justified them would you start
Unfolding all the pleasures of the dark

What you do if you could taste me?
Take your time
Savor moments when the walls are blind
Act like you made me
Every lie
Everything left up to your

Design like a dream
You bury me in every way you see
I can't wait anymore
I'm imagining
Sides of you
That I have never seen

Surprise me with what you'd do
If you could taste me
Take your time
Savor moments when the walls are blind
Act like you made me
Every lie
Everything left up to your design

Your design

Take my heart
Want you to break it
Want you to take my love
Want you to make it
Just take the two of us, oh
And make it beautiful
Take my time
Take every minute
Make me forget that I
Am even in it
You're all that I see tonight, oh
So make it beautiful!

What you do (oh) if you could taste me?
Oh, take your time, take your time
Savor moments when the walls are blind
Act like you made me
Every lie
Everything left up to your design
