Lyrics the dreaded diamond - One Plus One...Is Two Ones

Don't pretend you've been worried
You've got a heart-shaped face, but a self-shaped heart
And I won't pretend that I've been careful
'Cause I know that we've both got doubts

At least, I've got doubts big enough to drown you
I've got doubts big enough to swallow you
And I am not opposed to that

The chase, the catch, the court, the ceremony
It's enough to make anyone's stomach turn
How does she know that he's not lying
As mom and dad are crying
How does he know she'll be a faithful bride
Just because she's dressed in white
Well, that can't be right

But I see how she looks into his eyes
How she stands at his side
And how he holds her when they dance for the first time
He says, 'You're the only woman I could ever want'
She says, 'I'm so happy, I can barely breathe'
And they keep dancing
They just keep dancing
It's simple, and it's true, I hope it's true

Well, I have the world on a string
But it's bearing down on me
I'm afraid this hand could never bear a ring
This hand could never bear a ring
I watch the young feast on love
Me and my old, old soul
Spinning their storylines from my cold, marble pedastal

Maybe, someday, someone will help me realize
I've been overthinking it this whole time
And it will come easy, so much more effortlessly
Than I could even imagine right now
Yeah, this is just a phase
I hope

I hope
