  • When all of your flaws and all of my flaws
    Are laid out one by one
    The wonderful part of the mess that we made
    We pick ourselves undone

    All of your flaws and all of my flaws
    They lie there hand in hand
    Ones we've inherited, ones that we learned
    They pass from man to man

    There's a hole in my soul
    I can't fill it, I can't fill it
    There's a hole in my soul
    Can you fill it? Can you fill it?

    You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
    And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
    Dig them up; let's finish what we've started
    Dig them up, so nothing's left untouched

    All of your flaws and all of my flaws,
    When they have been exhumed
    We'll see that we need them to be who we are
    Without them we'd be doomed

    There's a hole in my soul
    I can't fill it, I can't fill it
    There's a hole in my soul
    Can you fill it? Can you fill it?

    You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
    And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
    Dig them up; let's finish what we've started
    Dig them up, so nothing's left untouched

    Ooh
    Ooh

    When all of your flaws
    And all of my flaws are counted
    When all of your flaws
    And all of my flaws are counted

    You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve
    And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground
    Dig them up. Let's finish what we've started
    Dig them up. So nothing's left untouched

    Ooh
    Ooh

    All of your flaws and all of my flaws
    Are laid out one by one
    Look at the wonderful mess that we made
    We pick ourselves undone Writer/s: DANIEL SMITH
