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
