You don't like the sound of the truth
|
Coming from my mouth
|
You say that I lack the proof
|
Well baby that might be so
|
I might get to the end of my life
|
Find out everyone was lying
|
I don't think that I’m afraid anymore
|
Say that I would rather die trying
|
|
Chorus:
|
Who-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 from 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, ain't it baby?
|
I looked at my reflection in the window walking past
|
And I saw a stranger
|
Just so scared all the time it makes me one more reason
|
Why the world's dangerous
|
|
Chorus:
|
Who-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 from my lips
|
|
You don't like the sound of the truth
|
Coming from my mouth
|
You say that I lack the proof
|
Well baby thats just not so
|
Tell me what's wrong with having a little faith
|
In what you're feeling in your heart
|
Why must we be so afraid
|
And always so far apart
|
|
Chorus:
|
Who-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 from my lips
|
