| Stained Glass Stained glass you told me stained glass I was. Stained glass you told me you wanted clear instead. When we began, I withheld from you my thoughts-- I didn't know what you'd do. I thought I'd scare you, I thought you'd run away. I thought you'd leave me, I thought you wouldn't stay. Then one night you came to me, said you could take everything. Once I told you, once I broke and cried, once I spoke to you, once I tried-- Stained glass you told me stained glass I was. Stained glass you told me you wanted clear instead. No one else would have me, no one else could care. No one else would want me, no one else could dare, 'cause Stained glass you told me stained glass I was. Stained glass you told me you wanted clear instead. I remember how you looked at me, I recall the words with which you shot me. You crushed my hopes, you scarred me deeply. You took my mind, you devoured all of me. Stained glass you told me stained glass I was. Stained glass you told me you wanted clear instead. Too many colors lit up my life, too many mem'ries filled with strife. Then one night I ran away. You filled me with night, I took the day. I talked to some people, they said you were wrong. They saw beauty, they said I was strong. Stained glass you told me stained glass I was. Stained glass you told me you wanted clear instead. Stained glass they told me is beautiful. Stained glass they showed me can be valuable. |
