If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can’t I paint you?
The words will never show 
The 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,
You’re all that’s 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

I’M A BETTER MAN (FOR HAVING LOVED YOU)

If I could catch a star before it touched the ground
I’d place it in a box, tie ribbons all around
And then I’d offer it to you
A token of my love and deep devotion
The world’s a better place
With you to turn to
I’m a better man
For having loved you

And now, at last, I face the future unafraid
With you here by my side, 
How fast the shadows fade
And there is hope inside my heart
Cause I have something wonderful to live for
The world’s a better place
With you to turn to
I’m a better man
For having loved you

And as I am today
That’s how I’ll always stay
A better man for having loved you
A better man for having loved you

The world’s a better place
With you to turn to
I’m a better man
For having loved you
And as I am today
That’s how I’ll always stay
A better man for having loved you
A better man for having loved you

If I could catch a star 
Before it touched the ground
I’d place it in a box, 
Tie ribbons all around
And then I’d offer it to you
A token of my love and deep devotion
