Jewelry Box

I’d build you a jewelry box to keep your earrings in

and that tiny golden necklace that lays so softly on your skin

And the bracelet that I made you back when we first met

so it ain’t lying in a cardboard box too easy to forget

I would make you almost anything

Well I’d build you an easel to do your paintings on

and watch you dance with the colors when the inspiration comes

I’d stretch 1000 canvases to pour your heart onto

And hold you tight every night you paint clouds over the moon

And I would make you almost anything

Well I built myself a picture frame of the finest wood to try to show your beauty best a picture ever could

And I keep it on my desk at work to get me through the day

and kiss it when I need to hear you say its all okay

And I would make you almost anything

I’d make you almost anything a man could with his hands but I can not seem to make you real so alone I still stand

with just an empty picture frame no paintings on the wall

Well I wonder if I’ll ever get to build a jewelry box at all?

A jewelry box at all
