Masterpiece
Omi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know you don't like the sound of your laugh
I know you take a hundred photographs
You post 'em on your wall
You don't know I love 'em all, do ya?
I know you don't know

You looking good in every angle
Shine like the stars in a Venga
You got my heart saying damn girl
Damn girl

'Cause every time I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece
If you're trying to be perfect you don't have to be
Put your body on my body and I'll tell you honestly
When I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece

When I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece

I know, I know you're hiding all your scars
But those imperfections made you a work of art
Let me frame you up in gold, move like Michelangelo
Beautiful work you are

You looking good in every angle
Shine like the stars in a Venga
You got my heart saying damn girl
Damn girl

'Cause every time I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece
If you're trying to be perfect you don't have to be
Put your body on my body and I'll tell you honestly
When I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece

When I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece

Guess what I'm tryin' to say?
Yes, baby, you're priceless
You're priceless, you are
And you can't lock it away
But you can't hide it
No, no

'Cause every time I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece
If you're trying to be perfect you don't have to be
Put your body on my body
And I tell you honestly
When I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece





A masterpiece
When I look at you I'm looking at a masterpiece

Truly a masterpiece!! 💙

@toddrickfrancis8860

Love it!!! Sad part about it is that there's a slim chance of it being a hit in the US. Why is it the greatest masterpieces have to be ignored by the public...
