lyrics

TAKE A DAY TO FIND THE ROSE YOU LOVE THE MOST,
STICK IT IN THE GROUND.
ADD A LITTLE WATER, WATCH IT GROW,
WATCH IT FLOWER.
TOO MANY TIMES YOU COMPLAIN,
ABOUT MISSIN’ ALL THE LITTLE THINGS.
MOTHER OF THE YEAR DID YOU SEE,
THE EASTER HAT PARADE.

THIS AIN’T NO OIL PAINTING,
BUT I’M GIVIN’ IT TO YOU,
THIS AIN’T NO OIL PAINTING,
BUT I’M GIVIN’ IT TO YOU.

THINK ABOUT THE ONES THAT LOVE YOU,
WOULD YOU LIKE TO WATCH THEM DIE.
AS THE PRESSURE RISES UP THROUGH YOUR VEINS,
YOU WILL FALL DOWN.
IT‘S JUST A PICTURE OF YOUR LIFE,
AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME.
YOU’D BE CRYIN’ IF I HURT MYSELF,
SO DON’T DO THIS TO ME.

THIS AIN’T NO OIL PAINTING,
BUT I’M GIVIN’ IT TO YOU,
THIS AIN’T NO OIL PAINTING,
BUT I’M GIVIN’ IT TO YOU.

I KNOW THAT FACE, AS IT SWITCHES OFF,
AND ROLLS INTO THE OTHER WORLD.
AND WHEN YOU MAKE IT BACK,
YOU SEE THAT THINGS CHANGE SO FAST,
YEAH THEY CHANGE SO FAST.

THIS AIN’T NO OIL PAINTING,
BUT IM GIVIN’ IT TO YOU,
THIS AIN’T NO OIL PAINTING,
BUT I’M GIVIN’ IT TO YOU,
THIS AIN’T NO OIL PAINTING,
BUT I’M GIVIN’ IT TO YOU.
TO YOU, TO YOU,
TO YOU, TO YOU,
TO YOU.
