Sixpence None the Richer Sad But True song lyrics

if I could have the words to change

to speak into the world would they fly

I wonder if they'd put them in a jewelled box for sale

but I need to strengthen the things that remain

it's sad but true

beauty never sells in everything the same

it's true

it's sad but true

I wont give in to what they want

or has the window closed any way

between the world they want to hear

and what they love me to say

but I need to strengthen the things that remain

it's sad but true

beauty never sells

money makes the rules

it's true

it's sad but true

one of these days something will break through

I want to

but I wait a whole world

but I wait a whole world

it's sad but true

it's sad but true

I need to strengthen the things that remain

it's sad but true

beauty never sells

money makes the rules

it's true

it's sad but true

I need to strengthen the things that remain

it's sad but true

beauty never sells

in everything the same

it's true

it's sad but true
