I am a gifted artist I've learned to paint this canvas well I work until I've finished An ideal image of myself But you know better I am a storyteller Quite brilliant, if I do say so I tell them tales they want to hear And they believe it's me they know But you know better Chorus: You see my imperfections Still You say I'm a masterpiece A marvelous reflection The image of Yourself in me You paint with strokes of grace Undoing my disguise You say beauty lies in the true story The world might think me foolish If they could see beneath my mask They might find my dreams laughable Or be embarrassed by my past But you know better (Chorus) Of where I've been And where you've brought me to Of who I am All because of you (4X) (Chorus 2X)
