Crystal Chandeliers

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 the folks you knew And it's 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're the chosen girl of the social world 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 --- Crystal Chandeliers - Charley Pride
