Jeff Buckley live performing Song 21 (Jewel Box)

I know you're a woman by the way you burn below

I'll tell you secrets so good, yu'l'll never tell a soul

Come closer, that bonfire holds his life like stones

My years, my life unknown

Diamonds from the pavement broken glass had been.

Just like these troubles that i'm leaving to the wind.

Like sapphires in boxcars speeding towards the end.

Like thieves, my bad luck grows.

Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear

Crystallise illusion shine, forgot i'm here

Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear

Oh, you left some stars in my belly

Star crossed child's love on the bands of wedding gold

Silver studs of promise hide in red crushed velvet folds.

Inaction, intention, like emeralds i stole.

My speech of custom gold. i think i ought to know.

Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tears

Crystallise illusion shine, forgot i'm here

Jewel box of sadness, bring to catch your tear

Oh, you left some stars in my belly.

You left some stars in my belly.

You left some stars in my belly.

*Sorry to "comment bomb" you, but I just wanted to respectfully let you know that your lyrics are incorrect. I'm sure you probably got them from a reputable lyric site, but the trouble with that is Jeffs gigs/live shows were a sort of vehicle for experimentation, so his lyrics changed with each performance. If you'd like a copy of the lyrics for this show I'd be happy to send them to you, just let me know & again, a MILLION thanks for sharing! (it's my favorite song at the moment ;) xx
