Sticks & sones Lyrics

You can take a house and everything in it
Even diamond rings thats how I meant it
Sticks and stones are all they ever were to me

This material life with all of its value
Don't mean a thing to me without 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
These sticks and stones aint all that makes a home
They don't have arms to hold you when love goes wrong
Now you say we are through
These sticks and stones may break me
But the words you said just tore my heart in two

'Member when we didn't have a dime between us
You took my hand said we don't need much
Just as long as we're together we would be fine
Now we've aquired all I thought would please you
I gave everything you know that I could
Still you're tellin' me you're not satisfied

So take everything if it makes you happy
But darlin' let me say before I leave
These sticks and stones aint all that makes a home
They don't have arms to hold you when love goes wrong
Now you say we are through
These sticks and stones may break me
But the words you said just tore my heart in two

These sticks and stones may break me
But the words you said just tore my heart in two
