Danny Elfman - Tears To Shed - Текст песни

What does that wispy little brat have that you don't have double 
She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile 
How about a pulse 
Overrated by a mile 
Overvalued 
Overblown 

If he only knew the you that we know 

And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring 
And she doesn't play piano 
Or dance 
Or sing 
No she doesn't compare 
But she still breathes air 
Who cares 
Unimportant 
Overrated 
Overblown 

If only he could see how special you can be 
If he only knew the You that we know 

If I touch a burning candle 
I can feel no pain 
If you cut me with a knife 
It's still the same 
And I know her heart is beating 
And I know that I am dead 
But the pain here that I feel 
Try and tell me it's not real 
And it seems that I still have a tear to shed 

A sure redeeming feature from that little creature, is that she's alive 
Overrated 
Overblown 
Everybody knows that's just a temporary state 
Which is cured very quickly when we meet our fate 
Who cares 
Unimportant 
Overrated 
Overblown 

If only he could see how special you can be 
If he only knew the You that we know 

If I touch a burning candle I can feel no pain 
In the ice or in the sun it's all the same 
Yet I feel my heart is aching 
Though it doesn't beat, it's breaking 
And the pain here that I feel 
Try and tell me it's not real 
I know that I am dead 
But it seems that I still have some tears to shed
