Crystal Chandeliers Lyrics

Oh the crystal chandeliers
light up the paintings on your wall.
The marble statuettes
are standing stately in the hall.
But will the timely crowd that has you
laughing loud help you dry your tears.
When the new wears off
of your crystal chandeliers.
I never did fit in too well
with folks you knew.
It was plain to see that
the likes of me don't fit with you.
So you traded me for the gaiety
of the well to do.
And you turned away from
the love I offered you.

Oh the crystal chandeliers
light up the paintings on your wall.
The marble statuettes
are standing stately in the hall.
But will the timely crowd
that has you laughing loud
help you dry your tears.
When the new wears off
of your crystal chandeliers.
I see your picture in the news
most every day.
You've found the key
to society so the stories say.
But a paper smile only lasts a while
then it fades away.
And the love we knew
will come home to you some day.
Oh the crystal chandeliers
light up the paintings on your wall.
The marble statuettes
are standing stately in the hall.
But will the timely crowd
that has you laughing loud
help you dry your tears.
When the new wears off
of your crystal chandeliers.
When the new wears off
of your crystal chandeliers.
