Made of Clay



    I saw my tear on your cheek
    The look in your eye
    That says you're all out of hope
    All the rain in the sky
    Won't wash them black sheep
    It should be no surprise it's the end of the road
    You should be seeing who I am
    Instead you wanna talk about where I've been
    Instead you ask for my love to be still
    You throw it into the box of goodwill

    It's too bad things have turned out this way
    It's too bad I'm not made of clay
    Mama I'm tired of playin' this play
    It's too bad I'm not made of clay

    You think the sky would be all rained out
    You'd think that we could forgive by now
    The anger in the sound of your voice
    That way that I am that you call a choice
    It's always darkest before the dawn
    So we'll say goodbye and then we move on
    Here's another bit of tuth that is known
    Who you love is not the same as what you own

    It's too bad things have turned out this way
    It's too bad I'm not made of clay
    Mama I'm tired of playin' this play
    It's too bad I'm not made of clay

    Made of clay
    I called to you from the top of the stairs
    I wonder when you stopped being there
    You used to know just what to say
    I guess things are????

    It's too bad things have turned out this way
    It's too bad I'm not made of clay
    Mama I'm tired of playin' this play
    It's too bad I'm not made of clay
