lyrics

I bought you diamonds and gold, but you hate to shine
I sing a sad lonely song, but it’s what you like
Let’s build a home and buy fancy clothes
God knows it’s how we survive
I might be some years ahead, but let’s start tonight

Speak truth to me
Darling and I’ll be true
Speak honestly
Honestly, I can’t help falling for you
The better part of me

I’ve worn a path with my hands on the map of your skin
You kiss my face in the morning, and I’m born again
From the fire and the sea to the birds and the bees
I’ve seen where life begins
Delicate like paper kites held by the wind

Speak truth to me
Darling and I’ll be true
Speak honestly
Honestly, I can’t help falling for you
Everyday I’ll be brand new
Thank god for you, the better part of me

There will be days we’re apart and I’ll long for you
The nights will grow heavy and dark in solitude
But when we collide we explode in the sky, two stars
We’ll block out the view
Today I love you simply because I do

Speak truth to me
Darling and I’ll be true
Speak honestly
Honestly, I can’t help falling for you
Everyday I’ll be brand new
Thank god for you, the better part of me
