I was in for a penny, out for a pound
I was wearing a crown whenever you came around
I was blinded by glitter, shackled by gold
'Cause you had so many secrets that were never to be told
One day I found out about you
Oh, the curtains were cleared
And it was worse than I hoped for
It was worse than I feared
No, I wasn't your diamond
I was no precious thing
I was just another pearl on your endless string
You need to be much better love (better love)
So, I need to find a better love, better love
You ain't gonna get much better love (better love)
Acting like that, be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
I should have cut all my losses
Took my heart off my sleeve
'Cause you're like a thief
You nearly stole it from me
I let myself be so blinded by the twinkle in your eye
That I didn't even see you leaving me high and dry
One day I found out about you
Oh, the curtains were cleared
And it was worse than I hoped for
It was worse than I feared
No, I wasn't your diamond
I was no precious thing
I was just another pearl on a string
You need to be much better love (better love)
So, I need to find a better love, better love
You ain't gonna get much better love (better love)
Acting like that, be better love, better love
You need to be much better love
So, I need to find a better love, better love
You ain't gonna get much better love
Acting like that, be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
Babe, why you acting like that? Be better love, better love
