There could never be a portrait of my love
For nobody could paint a dream!
You will never see a portrait of my love
For miracles are never seen!
Anyone who sees her,
Soon forgets the mona lisa!
It would take I know, a michael angelo,
And he would need the glow of dawn
That paints the sky above
To try an paint a portrait of my love!

. . . yes, he would need the glow of dawn
That paints the sky above
To try an paint a portrait of my love!
