*Intro/Lead-in II TWICE w/ lyrics:
	If a picture paints a thousand words,
	Then why can't I paint you?
	The words will never show
	The you I've come to know.

	If a face could launch a thousand ships,
	Then where am I to go?
	There's no one home but you,
	You're all thats left me to.  <---thats a guess on the lyrics folks!

	If a man could be two places at one time
