Sticks & Stones

You can take the house and everything in it
 Keep the diamond ring 'cause that's how I meant it
 Sticks and stones are all they ever were to me
 And this material life with all it's value
 Don't mean a thing to me without you
 And the love that we once had is all I need
 So take everything we have if it makes you happy
 But darling, let me say before I leave
 These sticks and stones
 Ain't all that makes a home
 They don't have arms to hold you when love goes wrong
 And now you say
 We are through
 And these sticks and stones may break me
 But the words you said just tore my heart in two
 ♪
 Remember when we didn't have a dime between us
 You took my hand and said we don't need much
 Just as long as we're together, we would be fine
 Oh, now we've acquired all I thought would please you
 I gave everything you know that I could
 Still you're telling me you're not satisfied
 So take everything we have if it makes you happy
 But darling, let me say before I'll leave
 These sticks and stones ain't all that makes a home
 Oh, they don't have arms to hold you when love goes wrong
 And now you say we are through
 These sticks and stones may break me
 But the words you said just tore my heart in two
 And these sticks and stones may break me
 But the words you said just tore my heart in two
