You don't like the sound of the truth
|
Coming from my mouth
|
You say that I lack the proof
|
Baby that might be so
|
I might get to the end of my life
|
Find out everyone was lying
|
And I don't think that I'm afraid anymore
|
To say that I would rather die trying
|
|
Oh swing me way down south
|
Sing me something brave from your mouth
|
And I'll bring you pearls of water on my hips
|
And the love in my lips
|
All the love in my lips
|
|
This time when he swung the bat
|
And I found myself laying flat
|
I wondered
|
What a way to spend a dime
|
What a way to use the time
|
Aint it baby?
|
And I looked at my reflection
|
In the window walking past
|
And I saw a stranger
|
I'm just so scared all the time
|
Makes me one more reason why
|
The world's dangerous
|
|
Oh swing me way down south
|
Sing me something brave from your mouth
|
And I'll bring you pearls of water on my hips
|
And the love in my lips
|
All the love in my lips
|
|
You don't like the sound of the truth
|
Coming from my mouth
|
You say that I lack the proof
|
Baby that might be so
|
Tell me what's wrong with having a little faith
|
In what you're feelin in your heart
|
And why must we be so afraid
|
And always so far apart
|
|
Oh swing me way down south
|
Sing me something brave from your mouth
|
And I'll bring you pearls of water on my hips
|
And the love in my lips
|
All the love in my lips
|
