The Girl - City and Colour

Written by：Dallas Gree

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

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

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh

One two one two three four

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

The sailing around the world

'Round 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

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

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
