My Masterpiece Songtext

von Darius Rucker

I was born with a heart with a beat like a rolling stone
Never did I realize where I was supposed to belong
I never knew what I was meant to do
I never made sense to me 'til I made sense to you

I never had a silver spoon
I didn't grow up in a castle
I never walked on the moon
I'll never paint a Sistine Chapel
I can't play piano like Ray Charles
But, baby, when my life is through
I hope they say my masterpiece is lovin' you
Yeah, lovin' you, babe
Lovin' you, babe

Girl, I swear your hazel eyes are making me feel
Like Picasso never had that color in his wheel
If I wrote the song, your name would be Georgia
And you'd be on my mind
Like a starry night, our love will stand the test of time

I never had a silver spoon
I didn't grow up in a castle
I never walked on the moon
I'll never paint a Sistine Chapel
I can't play piano like Ray Charles
But, baby, when my life is through
I hope they say my masterpiece is lovin' you
Yeah, lovin' you, babe, now
Lovin' you, darlin'

So get a little closer, baby
I wanna take my time, wanna take all night
So get a little closer, darlin'
Wanna keep on workin' 'til I get it right

I never had a silver spoon
I didn't grow up in a castle
I never walked on the moon
I'll never paint a Sistine Chapel
I can't play piano like Ray Charles
But, baby, when my life is through
I hope they say my masterpiece is lovin' you
Lovin' you, baby, yeah (I hope my masterpiece is)
Lovin' you, darlin' (I hope my masterpiece is)
Lovin' you, babe
Lovin' you
I hope they say it all the time now
Oh, baby, I'm lovin' you

Lovin' you, babe
