Slave To The Beauty Lyrics - Carpenter Mary-chapin

Don't want to need the way I need you 

Don't want to feel like this 

Holding back all the words but not the kiss 

For the moment my heart begins to murmur 

The moment of truth arrives 

And I know you'll shake your head and say goodbye 

I know the price of this to me 

I'll light the candle that shines on you 

I'll be a slave to the beauty but not the truth 

Don't want to fear the way I fear you'll 

Hurt me because you can 

I never believed I'd crave that kind of man 

I've seen the trail of hearts you've broken 

I've seen the traps you lay 

And if I had the strengh I'd run without delay 

I know the price of this to me 

I'll light the candle that shines on you 

I'll be a slave to the beauty but not the truth 

It's dark and getting colder and I'm the beholder 

And you're all I long to see 

Don't want to love the way I love you... 

I know the price of this to me 

I'll light the candle that shines on you 

I'll be a slave to the beauty but not the truth 

I know the price of this to me 

I'll light the candle that shines on you 

I'll be a slave to the beauty but not the truth
