All this time
I've been drawing your lifeline
As I held your hand in mine
I've been smoothing out your troubles
While my own I left behind
All this time
I've been painting our portrait
But I can't seem to make it shine
The angle doesn't seem to matter
Perhaps the problem's with the light
It's taking so long
And it's gonna take a little more
Please prove me wrong
Is it gonna take a little more
Ooh, in time
I will whisper speaks of gladness
Sweet release and the smiles
I'll be carrying your laughter
Like a favorite work of art
