(Castillo/Lopez)

knowing hands paint a quiet scene
sketch the outlines of a poisoned dream
one last self-portrait
you put on your favorite dress
set the stage for a mystery
having so many reasons to live
and not a thing to forgive

i'll save the records
'cause i know you...
i know you always loved jazz
turpentine on your breath
the day they found you

weary hands clean up the floor
broken pieces of the day before
i've made the arrangements
i've laid out your favorite dress
wish i had been there
wish i had a reason to live
they'll hang your retrospective and

i'll save the records
'cause i know you...
i know you always loved jazz
turpentine on your breath
the day they found you

as your echoes fade to whispers
in the stillness of this room
i'll put the needle to the vinyl
and remember
the sweetness of your perfume
