Jeff Buckley — Jewel Box

[Verse 1] 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 life like stones My years, my life unknown [Verse 2] Diamonds from the pavement where the 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 [Chorus] Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear Crystallize illusion shine, forgot I'm here Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear Oh, you left some stars in my belly [Verse 3] Star-crossed child's love on the bands of wedding gold Silver studs of promise hide in the red crushed velvet folds Inaction, intention, like emeralds I stole My speech of custom gold I think I ought to know [Chorus] Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear Crystallize 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
