lyrics

Cold wind blowing at my door, rattling my hinges seeping through the floor,
I heard you calling out, left you wet and wrung out,

Why do we do the things we do, to those we care the most
It’s like a perfect crystal glass, so scared that it won’t last
Its gonna slip right through your hands, while you keep making other plans

So some things should just be, throw caution to the wind,
step over where it lands

Why do we do the things we do, to those we care the most
It’s like a perfect crystal glass, so scared that it won’t last
Its gonna slip right through your hands, while your making other plans

You can live your life, anyway you like, be the boy that lives next door
Or maybe the perfect wife

Why do we do the things we do, to those we care the most
It’s like a perfect crystal glass, so scared that it won’t last
Its gonna slip right through your hands, while your making other plans

When your cards are dealt, there is still a way you can get out
There is always a better deal, a dice can fall more than once

Why do we do the things we do, to those we care the most
It’s like a perfect crystal glass, so scared that it won’t last
Its gonna slip right through your hands, while you keep making other plans
