Broken Glass Lyrics by Freshwater Collins

Lean Back

0

She took all the time and she gave it all away
Never stopped to look or believe in herself she always played
Catch-up with herself she's always chasing great
Figures in her life, she could never make them stay
All the time she was runnin', tryin' to keep up
Never turned her head to the left or right to see if she should stop
Always movin', runnin' from place to place
Always thought if she caught up she'd be able to save some face but
Baby, don't you know, if you run too fast
All your time is wasted trying to go over broken glass
Baby, don't you know, if you move too fast
All your time is wasted trying to go over broken glass
One night as she rested at the back of a lonely bar
She caught my eye. She was so beautifully preoccupied
So I took a seat and I began a conversation
Bought love and dreams, comin' clean, and what you begin
Said it's been at least two years, since she spoke to any friends
They always betray her, she can't take it again
She'd rather keep on movin' than to deal with the pain within
I said, "You're very interesting" and our conversation ends
Baby, don't you know, if you run too fast
All your time is wasted trying to go over broken glass
Baby, don't you know, if you move too fast
All your time is wasted trying to go over broken glass
Baby, don't you know, if you run too fast
All your time is wasted trying to go over broken glass
Baby, don't you know, if you move too fast
All your time is wasted trying to go over broken glass
