Precious Lyrics - Esperanza - Esperanza Spalding

Love me or leave me 

But please 

Don't deceive me 

And say you 

Love me how I am 

You love the way 

I fit some ideal 

Not the real woman 

You've yet to understand 

See love ain't all heaven 

And I am no angel 

But I do the best I can

You always wanted 

Something more from my body 

And said you needed 

Something more from my loving 

But all you got was me 

And that's all that I can be 

I'm sorry if it let you down 

Now it's no nice excuse 

But all the magic was used 

Up on trying to uphold 

Some kind of tame 

Flattering persona 

That soon enough 

Was getting real old 

It takes more than pressure 

To change rock to diamond 

Now all you have is sand 

Slipping through your fingers 

Photos 

You always wanted 

Something more from my body 

And said you needed 

Something more from my loving 

But all you got was me 

And that's all that I can be 

I'm sorry if it let you down 

But I'm not gonna sit around 

And waste 

My precious divine energy 

Trying to explain 

And being ashamed of things 

You think are wrong with me 

I'm not gonna sit around 

And waste 

My precious divine energy 

Trying to explain 

And being ashamed 

Of what you think 

Is wrong with me 

Set you up 

You say I set you up 

Like I was different 

Than what I am 

Offering you now 

And drug your heart around 

Did you forget about 

All of the love 

And the acceptance 

That you promised me too? 

You always wanted 

Something more from my body 

And said you needed 

Something more from my loving 

But all you got was me 

And that's all that I can be 

I'm sorry if it let you down 

You always wanted 

Something more from my body 

And said you needed 

Something more from my loving 

But all you got was me 

And that's all that I can be 

I'm sorry if it let you down 

But I'm not gonna sit around 

And waste 

My precious divine energy 

Trying to explain 

And being ashamed of things 

You think are wrong with me 

Me, I'm not gonna sit around 

And waste 

My precious divine energy 

Trying to explain 

And being ashamed 

Of what you think is wrong 

With melt let you down
