lyrics

I am the great pretender
for as long as I can remember
with fortunes of forward motion
and visions of growing orchards
but white moon strings they found me
and she wrapped her arms around me
and she wrapped her arms around me
and she whispered she said

darling devotion
it puts stars in the jewels
and darling devotion
it’s all we can do

I am the dusty diamond
I sparkle and shine in silence
a thousand times I’ve tried it
just to let it slip behind me
but your time span orbit found me
and you wrapped your arms around me
and you wrapped your arms around me
and you whispered you said

darling devotion
it puts stars in the jewels
and darling devotion
you know it’s all we can do
yeah we can do it

we put the stars in the jewels
yeah put the stars in it
you wrapped your arms around me
and you whispered you said

darling devotion
it puts stars in the jewels
and darling devotion
it’s all we can do
yeah we can do it

because it’s me and you putting stars in the jewels
