Like a child acting so carelessly
You destroyed something you just didn't see
No, I'm not angry
Well how could I be angry with a child?
You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
Thoughtless child
Wrapped up in the shape of a man
I tried so hard to get you to understand
I'm so sorry
Why am I always the one saying I'm sorry
Like a mother does for a child?
You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
I'll never have the pieces again
I hate the way I keep losing things
And I hate the way when I lose something
I never seem to find it again
No, I'm not angry
How could I stay angry, with a little child?
You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
You broke a beautiful thing
Yes it did
And it won't ever mend
I'll never have the pieces again

Like a child acting so carelessly
You destroyed something you just didn't see
No, I'm not angry
Well how could I be angry with a child?
You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
Thoughtless child
Wrapped up in the shape of a man
I tried so hard to get you to understand
I'm so sorry
Why am I always the one saying I'm sorry
Like a mother does for a child?
You broke a beautiful thing

I'll never have the pieces again
I hate the way I keep losing things
And I hate the way when I lose something
I never seem to find it again
No, I'm not angry

You broke a beautiful thing

You broke a beautiful thing

No, I'm not angry
How could I stay angry, with a little child?
You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
You broke a beautiful thing
Yes it did
And it won't ever mend
I'll never have the pieces again
