You're a sapphire, you're a rolling stone You're a sparkle in a deep black hole You're like moon shine, when the curtains close You're my answer, one that no one knows And I can't believe it, that you even exist You know I would be dumb to give perfection up How can I accept it, that this is so precious? You know I would be dumb to give perfection up You're rare And I'm loving every second of it, don't you know? You're rare And only a stupid girl would let it go You're so good and you don't even know it You're so good and you don't even know You're rare And only a stupid girl would let it go, don't you know? I am broken, I am insecure Complicated, oh yeah that's for sure I feel worthless, I've been hurt so bad I get nervous you won't love me back And I can't believe it, that you even exist You know I would be dumb to give perfection up How can I accept it, that this is so precious? You know I would be dumb to give perfection up You're rare And I'm loving every second of it, don't you know? You're rare And only a stupid girl would let it go You're so good and you don't even know it You're so good and you don't even know You're rare And only a stupid girl would let it go, don't you know? Do you really think you wanna make some new memories? With me? Do you really think you wanna make some new memories? With me? You're rare And I'm loving every second of it, don't you know? You're rare And only a stupid girl would let it go You're so good and you don't even know it You're so good and you don't even know You're rare And only a stupid girl would let it go, you know? You're rare And only a stupid girl would let it go You're rare And only a stupid girl would let it go, don't you know?
