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 all the curtains were cleared
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
So I need to find a better love better love
You ain't gon' get much better love better love
Actin' like that be bad love bad love
I should have caught 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 all the curtains were cleared
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
So you need to be much better love
So I need to find a better love better love
You ain't gon' get much better love better love
Actin' like that be bad love bad love
You need to be much better love
So I need to find a better love better love
You ain't gon' get much better love better love
Actin' like that be bad love bad love
