I watch as your pencil moves lightly over the page
So much talent welled inside you
It’s no wonder you feel caged
When they tell you what to draw;
Exactly how a masterpiece looks.
And your forlorn eyes are screaming:

"Tell me why
I’m told what to make!
Tell me why you tell me how to create
A work of art.
I just wanna draw what’s in my heart...
What’s in my heart..."

And I can't help but wonder,
What if I was in your heart?
Could you capture so perfectly
The expression of my eyes as I smile
And would you talk to me all the while
And say the things I wish you say?
Could I tell you,without a word,
How to take my breath away
So that we could just forget the world...

I watch as your pencil moves lightly over the page
You notice and look up, watch as I blush and smile.
I’m startled out of my reverie
I see the gleam in your eyes and I know
Today,
You’re drawing me.
