I been run over by your cheatin' heart
And I owe it all to my poor self
'Cause I been outta town many a night
Shufflin' and staggerin' out in the street
Looking for a racket or an honest pay to help me
Make it through another day

If these tears were diamonds I'd be fine
I would bring 'em home to you and make you mine
But you running back to this stumbler (stumbler)
It sure as hell'd be a world wonder (wonder)
You know men would come a-travelin' a thousand miles just to see

Fire on the sea
Gold in the trees
You and me
Pure love unheard of

With a heart as pure as sugar block
And a soul unspoiled as vinegar wine
It sure would be against all odds (against all odds)
If you'd take me back into your cheating heart (cheating heart)
You know men would come a thousand miles just to see

Fire on the sea
Gold in the trees
You and me
Pure love unheard of

You and me
You and me
Why can't this be
Pure love unheard of
