Jewel Box - Jeff Buckley

I know you’re a woman by the way you burn below

I’ll tell you secrets so good, you’ll never tell a soul

Come closer, that bonfire holds his life like stones

My years, my life unknown

Diamonds from the pavement broken glass had been

Just like these troubles that i’m leaving to the wind

Like sapphires in boxcars speeding towards the end

Like thieves, my bad luck grows

Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear

Crystallise illusion shine, forgot i’m here

Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear

Oh, you left some stars in my belly

Star crossed child’s love on the bands of wedding gold

Silver studs of promise hide in red crushed velvet folds

Inaction, intention, like emeralds i stole

My speech of custom gold.

i think i ought to know

Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tears

Crystallise illusion shine, forgot i’m here

Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear

Oh, you left some stars in my belly

You left some stars in my belly

You left some stars in my belly
