If I could paint
You'd be my masterpiece
Colors so bold
I'd no longer need to see
If I fought wars
You'd be a victory
A battle so long
You'd be the sweetest piece
So from the sky I'm coming down
Catch me ‘fore I hit the ground
Let me crash, slip through your hands
Either way, I'll understand
I'll understand
So hush
Don't speak another word
Or we might be crushed
Under the beauty of this world
It's all too much
The promise of what might be
But it's just enough
To tear down what's left of me
So from the sky I'm coming down
Catch me ‘fore I hit the ground
Let me crash, slip through your hands
Either way, I'll understand
I'll understand
If I could create just one masterpiece
It would never be strong, and bold, and pure, and good as you
From the sky I'm coming down
Catch me ‘fore I hit the ground
Or let me crash, slip through your hands
Either way, I'll understand
I'll understand
(I'll understand)
(I'll understand)
I'll understand
I'll understand
