Steve Martin & Edie Brickell - Remember Me This Way lyrics

Painter, would you paint my portrait? Paint me wearing the finest clothes in town Make me look like I'm somebody Make me a little younger than I am now Will you please remember me Remember me this way Will you please remember me I want to be remembered this way Paint me with a happy family Kids and dogs and babies all around Paint us on the bank of a river Put horses and a house in the background Will you please remember me Remember me this way Will you please remember me I want to be remembered this way Make it a work of art A real sight to see Make it a work of art A real masterpiece Don't forget my dear companion Put someone who loves me by my side Will you please remember me Remember me this way Will you please remember me I want to be remembered this way Painter, would you paint my portrait? I want to be remembered this way
