When I look upon the ground
And I see your shining heart
I know it doesn't belong
But I can't help but pick it up

I'm scared of what the outcome
Will do to unravel the stitches
Holding together the pieces of your
Beautiful, beautiful heart

Like I said before
Your heart doesn't belong here
It's to squeaky clean
To enter someone like me

We both are lost and
Have not been found
And I guess that's why
Our strength is doubled
When we're together

If you want that, and nothing else
I'll gladly give it to you
But you come so cute and sweet
I can't stand to stain the pieces
Of your beautiful, beautiful heart

You're so fragile, and
Experience should tell you that
I'm not the guy you should be with
Maybe someone else would do

But why won't you just walk away
And leave me to my dreary days?
I've earned them, as you can see,
And yet you still stand with me

You're an angel, I'm sure of it
But you're broken, and I can't heal this
So why don't you find a worthy man
Or even go back to your perfect Heaven?

I love you dearly,
I wish we'd never part
But I won't shatter the pieces
Of your beautiful, beautiful heart
