Story Behind The Song

Lyrics
With a hand on my shoulder, and a smile on her lips
A beauty so silent, casting any doubt adrift
With brush in hand, and will beyond command
Every stroke on the canvas exploding
Leanan
Beauty shall greet me in the morning
To tear down the night and shutter the day
Beauty shall meet me under starlight
With a hand on my shoulder, a lien on my soul
Swirling in patterns and palettes unknown
Day after day the intensity gains
Night after night I am locked and remain
Leanan
While I'm drawn, Leanan
Rather a captive than a stranger, Leanan
Beauty shall greet me in the morning
To tear down the night and shutter the day
Beauty shall meet me under starlight
With a hand on my shoulder, a lien on my soul
Swirling in patterns and palettes unknown
And they'll never know why...never know why I'm drawn
To Leanan
Why I'm drawn, Leanan
Rather a captive than a stranger, Leanan
