I'd like to be the picture on your mantel 
I'd like to be the window in your door
I'd like to be the feather on your pillow 
I'd even like to be the carpet on your floor

That lucky chair that holds you every night

And if you'll ever have a heartache 
I want to be the tear you hide

The melody that action night and day
And when you're old enough to want to marry
I'd like to be the one who steals your heart away

And if you need someone to talk with...
