All this time
I´ve been drawing your lifeline
As I held your hand in mine
I´ve been smoothing out our 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´ll whisper speaks of gladness
Sweet release and smiles
I´ll be carrying our laughter
Like a favorite work of art
