Stained Glass

Across Chestnut Street, over the train tracks

I fell in love with someone who was pretty as stained glass

At the bakery you're making me coffee

The layers of the pastry gave me something to talk about

So why do you say what you don't mean?

Why do you say what you don't mean, don't mean?

Why do you say anything at all?

And why do you say what you don't mean

Why do you say what you don't mean, don't mean?

Why do you say anything at all?

I found myself driving to Indy

Put on the record that you listened to with me

Did I say too much or show that I cared?

I'm pacing round the shops and the sidewalks in Fountain Square

So why do you say what you don't mean?

Why do you say what you don't mean, don't mean?

Why do you say anything at all?

And why do you say what you don't mean

Why do you say what you don't mean, don't mean?

Why do you say anything at all?

Why do you say what you don't mean

Why do you say what you don't mean, don't mean?

Why do you say anything at all?

I will say I'm happy to be crying

I thought that was over

The highway felt me breaking with the sky

I pulled off to the shoulder

And I put the windows down and I let the rain pour in

Anything that I can do to feel something again
