Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You don't like the sound of the truth
Comin' from my mouth
You say that I lack the proof
Baby, that might be so
I might get to the end of my life
And find out everyone was lying
But I don't think that I'm afraid anymore
Say that I would rather die trying
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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?
And I looked at my reflection
In the window walkin' past and I saw a stranger
I'm just so scared all the time
Makes me one more reason why the world is dangerous
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
You don't like the sound of the truth
Comin' from my mouth
You say that I lack the proof
Baby, that might be so
Tell me what's wrong with havin' a little faith
In what you're feeling in your heart?
And why must we be so afraid
And always so far apart?
[Verse 6]
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
