Teardrop Chandeliers
Lyrics By Candance Howe
Music By Robert Thomson

Some marry for loveSome want a warm body
Some marry to keep the wolves of loneliness at bay
Some think of themselves
Some think of the children
Some manage to sweep their dreams of happiness away

Teardrop Chandeliers
Statues in the garden
Palm trees sway and people say
I beg your pardon
Jewel box so full
Of golden chains to bind me
And a trail of diamond tears to leave behind me

He'll promise the moon
He'll take you to heaven
But livin' on love won't make the bank book balance right
You hurry on home
You check on the children
You go to the cold cold arms that wait for you each night

Teardrop Chandeliers
Statues in the garden
Palm trees sway and people say
I beg your pardon
Jewel box so full
Of golden chains to bind me
And a trail of diamond tears to leave behind me
