lyrics

There's a place in my dreams that I've gone to so many times
A picture of home that hangs on the wall in my mind
It's tucked in the trees, the light through the window guides me
Down a creek gravel lane to the smell of the rolling chimney
Last night I stepped in the frame you were standing there
Posed for the picture just like you'd always been there

You're part of the painting
Brushed on and waiting to dry
The artist has shown his best work
On the blue in your eyes
At home in a picture
That hangs on the wall in my mind
You were there waiting for me
When I came in last night

Sometimes dreaming is reliving the things that you've done
Somedays you wake up believing you know what's to come
Now the artist is drinking hoping to steady his hand
Cause he woke up believing the picture was perfect again

You're part of the painting
Brushed on and waiting to dry
The artist has shown his best work
On the blue in your eyes
At home in a picture
That hangs on the wall in my mind
You were there waiting for me
When I came in last night
