For autobiography (if the guy asked me) I might say something like ALL I'M AFTER, geez, now that I think about it, it'd be hard to not sound pretentious titling your own autobiography wouldn't it!..
I like IT'S WORTH BELIEVIN..
I suppose A PAINTER PASSING THROUGH might make the most sense since, in a way, that's what the song basically is isn't it.. his own story the way he cares to relay it..

Titling A biography might be a different animal though..
I probably would choose RIVER OF LIGHT myself..
Maybe ENDLESS WIRE..
A PAINTER PASSING THROUGH..

I hope someone sits down and is able to get an authorized gig writing the book while all the players involved are still here to tell the story..

It would take a few years to do..

Maybe Barry Harvey or Rick is listening in here..

cuz hey fellas..
if not now, then when..
etc..
