just a glimpse

anyway

bless the day this restoration is complete
dirty, dusty, something must be underneath
so i scrape and i scuff though it's never quite enough
i am starting to see me, finally

a gallery of paintings new and paintings old
guess it's no surprise i'm no michaelangelo
every layer of mine hides a lovely design
it might take a little patience
it might take a little time

but you called me beautiful
when you saw my shame
and you placed me on the wall
anyway

you who have begun this work will finally see
a portrait of the holiness you meant for me
so i polish and shine 'till it's eaiser to find
even an outline of mine

but you called me beautiful
when you saw my shame
and you placed me on the wall
anyway

i can't understand this but this is what i need to hear from You. time and time again You remind me of this. you see the depths of my heart and you love me the same.
