Sleight of hand, angry words, and the arguments that don't get heard,
I'm so smitten and attached with my paper dreams - you strike the match,
You should know, my buttercup, it's easier to fall and harder to get up.

And it won't make it any less true if you deny what's inside of you,
I could show you a thing or two, but you've got to stand beside me, stand beside me.

Breathe a sigh, plant a kiss,
Honey, what are we gonna do with any of this'
Build a bridge or a fence now that I am of no consequence,
To see the world inside your eyes,
Now here comes the pay-off line.

And it won't make it any less true if you deny what's inside of you,
I could show you a thing or two, but you've got to stand beside me, stand beside me.

It won't make it any less true if you deny what's inside of you,
