Masterpiece Lyrics - Singles - Carolyn Dawn Johnson

There were forty little houses in a place they called High River 

And everyone knew Tim since the day he was born 

He was a little different some might call it slow 

But when Nellie moved to town she saw his heart of gold 

They found each other and never spent another day apart 

Whoever would have dreamed in his quiet eyes 

She'd find the piece to make her life complete 

Oh you could say it was a work of art 

Like someone took a brush and painted there hearts 

Together they made such a beautiful thing 

And oh if there was anything that they could do right 

It was painting love in the perfect light 

So we could see that love is a masterpiece 

Yeah well Tim always had a little trouble with letters and numbers 

So Nellie paid the bills and read all the mail 

No one worked harder for miles around 

Tim was the best farmhand and Nellie was proud 

A year went by of saving their nickels and dimes 

They had a little boy they named him Daniel 

And he became their pride and joy 

Oh you could say it was a work of art 

Like someone took a brush and painted their hearts 

Together they made such a beautiful thing 

And oh if there was anything that they could do right 

It was painting love in the perfect light 

So we could see that love is a masterpiece 

Everybody said that they were so close to heaven 

That they didn't have far to go 

Somehow it all made sense that they all went together 

That night on that dark road 

Oh you could say it was a work of art 

Like someone took a brush and painted their hearts 

Together they made such a beautiful thing 

And oh, if there was anything that they could do right 

It was painting love in the perfect light 

So we could see that love is a masterpiece 

Love is a masterpiece 

Love is a masterpiece 

Love is a masterpiece
