David Stern - Painted for You Lyrics

Painted for You

I sat down with my old six-string
Thought 'bout you, made the whole room sing
Dipped my brush in them sunset skies
Painted your name where the eagle flies

Every stroke, every chord I play
Is my heart tryin' to find a way
To tell you somethin' words can't say
Darlin', you light up my day

So frame it, pin it, or let it ride
This song's for you, no place to hide
I wrote it in the stars, the moon, the sun
For you, baby, you're my only one
Painted this love in every hue
This ain't just a song, it's my soul for you

Took the colors of a Texas dawn
Matched 'em to your smile, oh, so warm
Every shadow tells a story 'bout us
In the dust, with love as our canvas

Every line, every shade I choose
Is my heart, darlin', singin' the blues
'Cause without you, I'd surely lose
Ain't no one else could fill your shoes

So frame it, pin it, or let it ride
This song's for you, no place to hide
I wrote it in the stars, the moon, the sun
For you, baby, you're my only one
Painted this love in every hue
This ain't just a song, it's my soul for you

In the quiet of the night, when the world's asleep
I find your face in my dreams so deep
With every heartbeat, I make this vow
I'll keep paintin' love, here and now

So frame it, pin it, or let it ride
This song's for you, no place to hide
I wrote it in the stars, the moon, the sun
For you, baby, you're my only one
Painted this love in every hue
This ain't just a song, it's my soul for you

Yeah, my soul for you, darlin', all in tune
Painted this love under a Texan moon
Forever yours, in colors true
This song, baby, it's painted for you
