Greatest Work of Art
Finger painted pictures on the fridge
Messy colors but you loved it
There's a lot you could've done but
You gave your time to me
Everything was so much bigger when
I was just a kid in a museum
Everything you showed me way back then
Comes back to me in flashes I still see it
Put your awards
In a drawer
Swapped them for
Scraped knees and more
Mac and cheese than you had probably bargained for
Didn't see
At the time
Every laugh
And every cry
Was contributing to your final design
I was your greatest work of art
Not the cleanest canvas but you made it your own
You could do anything you want
Devoted decades
Spending mornings at home
Yeah your hands they formed my heart
I owe you everything
There's nothing else I need
Yeah I became your dream
You gave it all to me
I was your greatest work of art
I wish I hadn't taken it for granted
It's so easy now to just be selfish
You know there's so much I want to accomplish
But mostly I wanna be like you
With your awards
In a drawer
Swapped them for
Scraped knees and more
Rowdy kids than you had probably bargained for
Didn't see
At the time
Every prayer
And every dime
Was contributing to your final design
I was your greatest work of art
Not the cleanest canvas but you made it your own
You could do anything you want
Devoted decades
Spending mornings at home
Yeah your hands they formed my heart
I owe you everything
There's nothing else I need
Yeah I became your dream
You gave it all to me
I was your greatest work of art
Art-Art-Art-Art
I was your greatest work of art
Not the cleanest canvas but you made it your own
You could do anything you want
Devoted decades
Spending mornings at home
Yeah your hands they formed my heart
I owe you everything
There's nothing else I need
Yeah I became your dream
You gave it all to me
I was your greatest work of art
Greatest work of art
Greatest work of art
Messy colors but you loved it
There's a lot you could've done but
You gave your time to me
