Loving You Is My Masterpiece

Ben Harper

	G lick

	G
Could paint the sun	and the moon

	C	G
and the	stars straight	down from the sky

Carve your likeness in stone

	C	G
	down to the light that	shines in your eyes

Could build a church in your honor

stained glass windows facing east

Loving you

Loving you

is my masterpiece

Love you for who you are

I love you for who you may never be

From downtown all the way

up to 142nd street

And all of my possessions

they mean less than the very least

Loving you

Loving you

is my masterpiece

There's no time like now

and there is no place like here

So throw your loving arms

around me dear

And I lean on you like a beggar

leans upon the moonlit streets

Loving you

Loving you

is my masterpiece
