rosanne cash - portrait lyrics
i have a portrait of my man
two strong arms, two gentle hands
and a heart that stays a mystery to me
and the portrait in my head
is not a stranger to my bed
like the real man that i love has come to be
the man i long to see is like a shadow in my dreams
and the portrait is who keeps me company
the man i want to hold would never let our love grow cold
but the real man hides his love away from me
i have a portrait in my mind
of two hearts that beat in time
and the rhythm that is not so hard to feel
but a picture of a dream
is never what it seems
and the steps we take don’t make picture real
the man i thought i knew is a vision veil removed
keeps me wondering how it’s gonna be
the man i want to touch doesn’t comfort me as much
as his picture that i hold so close to me
i thought i knew him
now i see right through him
i have a portrait of my man
too little time to understand
a heart that stays a mystery to me
and the picture in my heart
is not a stranger in the dark
and not afraid to be the man he could be
