I will lay around sometimes and show some sadness
For people whom I've known that now are gone
And, I will cry to show you, try to show you, when I'm happy
And, when things are going wrong

I will try my best to be there when you need me
And give you strength
when you need someone that's strong
And I'll sit and cry with you, my dear, if need be
And, I'll paint your pretty picture with a song

I will paint your pretty picture with a song
I will paint your pretty picture with a song
Tell you tales of life as I see it
And I'll paint your pretty picture with a song

(I said) I'm gonna try my best to be there

when you need me
And I'm gonna give you strength
when you need someone strong
And I'll sit cry with you my dear, if need be
And, I'll paint your pretty picture with a song

(I said) I'm gonna paint your pretty picture with a song
I am gonna paint your pretty picture with a song
Tell you tales of life as I see it
And I'll paint your pretty picture with a song

(I said) I'm gonna paint your pretty picture with a song
with a song, with a song
I am gonna paint you babe, paint your pretty picture
with a song
Tell you tales of life as I see it
And I'll paint your pretty picture with a song
I'll paint your pretty picture
I'll paint your pretty picture with a song
