The Girl (Live) - City and Colour

I wish I

Could do better by

You, 'cause that's what you deserve

You sacrifice

So much of your life

In order for this to work

While I'm off chasing my own dreams

Sailing around the world

Please know that I'm yours to keep

My beautiful girl

And when you cry

A piece of my heart dies

Knowing that I may have been the cause

If you were to leave

Fulfill someone else's dreams

I think I might totally be lost

You don't ask for no diamond rings

No delicate strings of pearls

That's why I wrote this song to sing

My beautiful girl

Oooh...

I wish I

Could do better by

You, 'cause it's what you deserve

You sacrifice

So much of your life

In order for this to work

While I'm off chasing my own dreams (my own dreams)

And sailing around the world (around the world)

Please know that I'm yours to keep

My beautiful girl

And when you cry

A piece of my heart dies

Knowing that I may have been the cause

If you were to leave

And fulfill someone else's dreams

I think I might totally be lost

But you don't ask for no diamond rings (diamond rings)

No delicate string of pearls (string of pearls)

That's why I wrote this song to sing

My beautiful girl

Ohh...

But you don't ask for no diamond rings (diamond rings)

No delicate string of pearls (string of pearls)

That's why I wrote this song to sing

My beautiful girl

I get so distracted

By some people's reactions

I don't see my own faults

For what they are.
