Portrait of Jenny (01-18-55) - Clifford Brown

A portrait of Jennie

More precious to me Than a masterpiece how ever famous it be The portrait of Jennie

Is etched on my heart

Where her features have been sketched from the start

Ah, the color and beatuy of life

And the glow of her sprit divine

All cast in heaven’s own design

With a portrait of Jennie

I never will part

For there isn’t any portrait of Jennie

Except in my heart

For there isn’t any portrait of Jennie

Except in my heart
