Aching lyrics

[Intro]
Are you looking for an invitation?
To come and live with a constant aching?
Have been wandering round and round
Trying to forget the sound of my heart breaking
There are traces of dark places
I have been to in my head
But they're fading
And the animal is waking up again

[Chorus]
I see these diamonds in the dust
(You say they're only stones)[x2]
But I can show you what they're worth
(You'd never let them go, if you'd only known)
And if you're looking for perfection in me
All you'll get is constant aching

[Bridge]
All you'll get is constant...
(You say they're only stones)[x2]
(You'd never let them go, if you'd only known)

[Verse 1]
It's like placing bets after the races
To take the risk is too complicated
This is our life, how can we face it?
It's only emptiness, so chase it
Take a picture of your life
Before the light begins to fade
Cause a photograph is all you'll have
When no one is left to say...
