Susan Werner - Through The Gla** lyrics

God, was I naive Waiting like some little lamb Willing to believe The story of the big strong man Who follows his own dreams The man who would be King some day But it isn't all it seems With something always in the way And the empire falls with every word You're fumbling for tonight And I can't bear to fool myself again When you say Hang on, just a little bit longer You say, hold on, just a little bit more But I, I know now what I didn't before And I will not love you through the gla** Such a sleight of hand Such a touch with subtle lies Such a fine command Of every common alibi But then you lost your grip And sank into a six-pack slide Living for the sip And k**ing off the King inside you Call it running from the shadows Call it running from the light But you're fumbling for my name again tonight And you say Hang on, just a little bit longer You say, hold on, just a little bit more But I, I know now what I didn't before And I will not love you through the gla** Why dream on a dream that burns me? Why dream on a dream expired? I'm told that this dream returns but lately I'm so tired I used to be naive Waiting like some little lamb Willing to believe The story of the big strong man Follows his own dreams The man who would be King some day But it isn't all it seems With empty bottles standing in the way And you say Hang on, just a little bit longer You say, hold on, just a little bit more But I, I know now what I didn't before And I will not love you through the gla** You say, hang on, just a little bit longer You say, hold on, just a little bit more But I, I know now what I didn't before And I will not love you through the gla** I will not love you I will not love you through it
