I been run over by your cheatin heart
And I owe it all to my poor self
Cuz I been outta town many a night
Shufflin' and staggerin' out in the streets
Looking for a racket or an honest pay to help me
Make it through another day
If these tears were diamonds I'd be fine
I would bring 'em home to you and make you mine
But you running back to this stumbler
It sure as hell'd be a world wonder
You know men would come a-travelin a thousand miles just to see
Fire on the sea
Gold in the trees
You and me
Or pure love unheard-of
With a heart as pure as Sugar Block
And a soul unspoiled as vinegar wine
It sure would be against all odds
If you'd take me back into your cheating heart
You know men would come a thousand miles just to see
Fire on the sea
Gold in the trees
You and me
Or pure love unheard-of
You and me
You and me
Why can't this be
A pure love unheard of
