Broken Beads Songtext
von Traverso

This ain′t a lullaby
This ain't a love song
This is a story
Of how we went wrong
It started with two people
With hope in their eyes
But it took them too long
To realize

If you love somebody
You know you gotta care
′Cause one day you'll wake up, maybe
And they won't be there

All I got were the beads you gave me
All I got were the tears you cried
Like those beads, our love is broken on the floor
And I tried, oh, I tried


To get some more
I never thought I′d be so tired
Never thought I′d need to cry
I never thought it'd hurt this much
The night we said goodbye

But young love don′t come easy, no
It's a lesson you can learn
If you play with fire too long
You′re bound to get burned

All I got were the beads you gave me
All I got were the tears you cried
Like those beads, our love is broken on the floor
And I cried, oh, I cried

And you said you would never leave me
And I swore I would never lie, oh, lie
And you said you would always need me
But time goes by, time goes by

All I got were the beads you gave me
All I got were the tears you cried
Like those beads, our love is broken on the floor
And I tried, oh, I cried


Oh, I tried
But I cried
Oh, I tried
Oh, I tried
