If I could paint a picture Of these visions in my head. It would tell a story Of why these tears were shed. And there upon the canvas Would be a portrait of you. The colors I would use Would be different shades of blue. If I could play a song To show you how I feel. You would hear a melancholy tune. A broken heart I would reveal. The solemn strum of the harp Would play a mournful sound. To guide these lonely teardrops As they softly hit the ground. If I could have one wish. I know what it would be. To find the love we lost And bring it back to me. Then a brilliant sparkle would crown the sky. And together our hearts would once more blend. For watching you smile makes my life worthwhile. And a happy person I would be again. [This message has been edited by Eloise (edited 02-02-2000).] |
