David Gates(from musical group "Bread")



If a picture paints a thousand words

Then why can't I paint you?

The words will never show

For you I've come to know.



If a face could launch a thousand ships

Then where am I to go?

There's no one home but you

And now you've left me too.



And when my love for life is running dry

You come and pour yourself on me



If a man could be two places at one time

I'd be with you.

Tomorrow and today

Beside you all the way



If the world should stop revolving

Spinning slowly down to die.

I'd spend the end with you

And when the world was through...



Then one by one, the stars would all go out.

Then you and I, would simply fly away
