Ricky Skaggs Mosaic Lyrics

Carve my name upon a tree
A knife into the bark
Trying to make a mark
So they'd remember me

Wanting to matter to someone
Maybe be a reason why
Be the apple of an eye
Before my life is done

(And all I'm sayin')
I'm in a place where
(All I'm prayin')
I see my face in

(Your mosaic)
And I am a piece
In the deal
And it is real

Tell me who it is you see
A little piece of colored stone
And placed here on its own
To me a mystery

So many grains of sand
Could they all be the same
Or would each see their name
Engraved upon your hand?

(And all I'm sayin')
I'm in a place where
(All I'm prayin')
I see my face in

(Your mosaic)
I am a piece
In the deal
And it is real

I catch a glimpse of
Your lovely ideal
And that can be enough
That can be enough

(And all I'm sayin')
I'm in a place where
(All I'm prayin')
I see my face in

(Your mosaic)
You are a piece
With the deal
And it is sealed
It is sealed
