No one on earth means more to me
Your painted pictures are the way that the world
Should be
Don't ever change it, I don't wanna live in this
World without you
Oh no

I can't explain, I can't define
What you do to me, but my senses are so alive
You tell your story and it's all that I ever believe

Portraits and poetry are frozen forms of perfection
But they don't live and breathe
When my heart's in need they don't answer me
You - ooo oooh you are, you're a human work of art
Walking, talking inspiration
You - ooo oooh you are, you're a human work of art
You make me love, you make me care
You give me freedom I don't need when I know
You're there
My search is over I've got all of the riches that
Money don't buy, Oh no

Your words are poetry and your face is more than
Perfection
The way I watch you move it only goes to prove
In everything to do

You oooh oooh you are, you're a human work of art
Walking, talking inspiration
You ooooh ooh you are, you're a human work of art

You're my mission
You're my goal
Oooh you liberate my soul

There's no illusion, that your touch is gold

Portraits and poetry are frozen forms of perfection
The way I watch you move it only goes to prove
In everything you do

You oooh oooh you are, you're a human work of art
Walking, talking new sensation
You ooooh oooh you are, you're a human work of art
Walking, talking inspiration
