Nothing Less Than Brilliant
There's nothing crueler than
a cheap joke at your expense
it just doesn't make any sense
not at all
you may be wrecked and torn
your face is hangered and drawn
but what you feel inside
is a diamond that's on fire
and you stumble and fall in the dark
they kick you aside like a worthless stone
but I know just how rare you are
and you're nothing less than brilliant in my eyes
how you sparkle, how you glow
There's nothing hungrier than
a dream trying to come true
it eats right into you
to your soul
you may be tattered and torn
you may be shattered and worn out
but what you feel inside
is a ruby that's on fire
and you stumble and fall in the dark
they kick you aside like a worthless stone but
I know how precious you are
and you're nothing less than brilliant in my eyes
how you sparkle, how you glow
a cheap joke at your expense
it just doesn't make any sense
not at all
you may be wrecked and torn
your face is hangered and drawn
but what you feel inside
is a diamond that's on fire
and you stumble and fall in the dark
they kick you aside like a worthless stone
but I know just how rare you are
and you're nothing less than brilliant in my eyes
how you sparkle, how you glow
There's nothing hungrier than
a dream trying to come true
it eats right into you
to your soul
you may be tattered and torn
you may be shattered and worn out
but what you feel inside
is a ruby that's on fire
and you stumble and fall in the dark
they kick you aside like a worthless stone but
I know how precious you are
and you're nothing less than brilliant in my eyes
how you sparkle, how you glow
