Christina Lyrics - Flaming Red - Patty Griffin

If you had the real thing how would you tell 

Liars can say it all just as well 

Every single word you've heard in vain 

Bavules of gold stars in your hair 

Relflections that told you they were not there 

And the diamonds on your cheeks have turned to flames 

And up in the air they would write your name there 

But love would fall to pieces in the rain 

Who would know better than you 

A hundred love letters and none of them true

Christina, Christina 

It's a wondrous world of ridiculous things 

With nothing so rare as the love that it brings 

In the silence of a smile that understands 

A piece of the action, pieces of gold 

Everyone's paid well and does what they're told 

For the simple daughter of a simple man 

And up in the air they would write your name there 

And love would fall to pieces in the rain 

Who would know better than you? 

A hundred love letters and none of them true 

Christina, Christina
