|
You can take the house and everything in it |
|
Keep the diamond ring cause thats how i meant it |
|
Sticks and stones are all they ever were to me |
|
This material life with all it's value |
|
Don't mean a thing to me with you |
|
The love that we once had is all i need |
|
So take everything we have if it makes you happy |
|
But darlin let me say before i leave |
|
(chorus) |
|
These sticks and stones ain't all that makes a home |
|
They don't have arms to hold you when love goes wrong |
|
Now you say, we are through |
|
But the words you said just tore my heart in two |
|
Remember when we didn't have a dime between us |
|
You took my hand and said we don't needmuch |
|
Just as long as we're together we would be fine |
|
Now we've acquired all i thought would please you |
|
I gave everything you know that i could |
|
And still you're telling me you're not satisfied |
|
So take everything we have if it makes you happy |
|
But darlin let me say before i leave |
|
(repeat chorus) |
