There could never be a portrait of my love

for nobody could paint a dream!

You will never see a portrait of my love

for miracles are never seen!

Anyone who sees her,

soon forgets the Mona Lisa!

It would take I know, a Michael Angelo,

and he would need the glow of dawn

that paints the sky above

to try an' paint a portrait of my love!

. . . yes, he would need the glow of dawn

that paints the sky above

to try an' paint a portrait of my love!
