Vanessa Carlton - Salesman Lyrics

You were looking for a partner
Shelter from the cold
He led you to his prism
A prison made of gold
Now you have a baby
She's looking up at you
And you will try to conceal what she sees
But you can never hide the truth

Now you're praying on your knees
Mirror, mirror, do you like it?
Do you like what you see?

Handsome salesman sold you heaven
Now you wait for it to fall
Until then you will surrender it all

He kisses you goodnight
He's dressed for someone else
He says to you honey don't you wait up
And you wake up by yourself

Now you're praying back on your knees
Mirror, mirror, give me the strength
The strength to believe

Handsome salesman sold you heaven
Now you wait for it to fall
Until then you will surrender it all

Do what I say, not what I do
What have I done?
Do what I say, not what I do
What have I done?
Do what I say, not what I do
What have I done?
Do what I say, not what I do

Handsome salesman sold you heaven
Now you wait for it to fall
Until then you will surrender it all
You will surrender it all
You will surrender it
You will surrender
You will surrender
You will surrender
