lyrics

I wish I could appreciate a work of art
I always have to get real close, and tear it apart
I just can’t believe in beauty so true
I need to find, some fault in you

Well I had the David, but I threw him away
Said his head was too big and his skin was too hard
I rather shut him out right from the start
Than risk being left with another broken heart

I couldn’t see the beauty in his faults
so caught up with imperfections
I couldn’t see his affections
here was beauty in his faults
But I let him slip away
Cause I was too afraid

I’ve always found it easier to pick up and run
So you would’nt end up as a prize I hadn’t won
So if I back out first, and close the door
You’d be the one who's left wanting more

I couldn’t see the beauty in his faults
so caught up with imperfections
I couldn’t see his affections
here was beauty in his faults
But I let him slip away
Cause I was too afraid

You were a good man and true
And I made a fool out of you
I’ve never been one to wear my heart on my sleeve
But, please, please come back to me
