Masterpiece

I Could paint the sun and the moon
And the stars straight down from the sky
Carve your likeness in stone
Down to the light that shines in your eyes
Build a church in your honor
Stained glass windows facing east
Loving you is my masterpiece
Love you for who you are
I love you for who you may never be
From downtown all the way up to 142nd street
And all of my possessions mean less than the very least
Loving you is my masterpiece
There's no time like now
There is no place like here
So throw your loving arms around me dear
And I'll lean on you like a beggar
Leans upon the moonlit streets
Loving you is my masterpiece
