Made Of Clay lyrics

I saw my tear on your cheek

The look in your eye that says you`re all out of hope

All the rain in the sky won`t wash them black sheep

It should be no surprise it`s the end of the road



You should be seeing who I am

Instead you wanna talk about where I`ve been

Instead you ask for my love to be still

You throw it into the box of goodwill



It`s too bad things have turned out this way

It`s too bad I`m not made of clay

Mama I`m tired of playin` this play

It`s too bad I`m not made of clay



You`d think the sky would be all rained out

You`d think that we could forgive by now

The anger in the sound of your voice

That way that I am that you call a choice



It`s always darkest before the dawn

So we`ll say goodbye again and we`ll move on

Here`s another bit of truth that is known

Who you love is not the same as what you own



It`s too bad things have turned out this way

It`s too bad I`m not made of clay

Mama I`m tired of playin` this play

It`s too bad I`m not made of clay , made of clay



I called to you from the top of the stairs

I wonder when you stopped being there

You used to know just what to say

Oh I guess things are different today



It`s too bad things have turned out this way

It`s too bad I`m not made of clay

Mama I`m tired of playin` this play

It`s too bad I`m not made of clay
