Portrait Of A Fool Lyrics By Conway Twitty

    paint two eyes
    make them cry
    paint two lips
    make them lies
    and you’re painting
    the portrait of a fool

    paint one heart
    that’s been untrue
    paint one soul
    make it blue
    and your paintin’
    the portrait of a fool

    there are somethings that look so familiar
    strange what this resemblance can be
    and now as i look in the mirror
    i know i know the fool you are painting is me

    paint one fool
    let it talk
    paint two hand
    that once held it all
    and you’ve painted
    a portrait of a fool
