A Picture of You
Aka If I Painted a Picture of You
©2011
If I painted a picture of you
These old hands wouldn't
Know where to start
These old eyes don't see very clear, my dear
But that picture is clear in my heart
I can see your red lips smiling at me
And that sparkle of love in your eyes
That picture I can't put on paper, you see
Will be with me ‘til the day I day.
If I painted a picture of love for you
These old hands wouldn't
Know where to start
These old eyes don't see very clear, my dear
But that picture is clear in my heart
A halo of sunshine surrounds you
The lines would be gentle but strong
This picture of love that I've painted for you
Will be with you long after I'm gone.
