Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Soon our fortunes will be made, my darling
And we will leave this loathsome little town
Silver bells jingling from your black lizard boots, my baby
Silver foil to trim your wedding gown
ย
It's true, the tools of love wear down
Time passes
A mind wanders
It seems mindless but it does
Sometimes I see your face
As if through reading glasses
And your smile, it seems softer than it was
ย
Proof
Some people gonna call you up
Tell you something that you already know
Proof
Sane people go crazy on you
Say, "No, man, that's not the deal we made
I got to go, I got to go"
Faith
Faith is an island in the setting sun
But proof, yes
Proof is the bottom line for everyone
ย
My face, my race
Don't matter anymore
My sex, my checks
Accepted at the door
ย
Proof
Some people gonna call you up
Tell you something that you already know
Proof
Sane people go crazy on you
Say, "No, man, that's not the deal we made
I got to go, I got to, I got to"
Faith
Faith is an island in the setting sun
But proof, yes
Proof is the bottom line for everyone
ย
Half moon hiding in the clouds, my darling
And the sky is flecked with signs of hope
Raise your weary wings against the rain, my baby
Wash your tangled curls with gambler's soap
ย
Proof
Some people gonna call you up
Tell you something that you already know
Proof
Sane people go crazy on you
Say, "No, man, that's not the deal we made
I got to, I got to, I got to"
Faith
Faith is an island in the setting sun
But proof, yes
Proof is the bottom line for everyone
But proof, yes
Proof is the bottom line for everyone
Proof, yeah
Proof is the bottom line for everyone
