Lyric Broken Glass - Cyndi Lauper

Lyric Song Broken Glass: Ever since i could understand
My mother said to me
"don t you ever let a man hit you
Don t you grow up like me"
So i swore i d never be like her
Or my grandmother too
Ever if it meant i d be alone
Ever if it meant i d be alone

cause she looked
cause she looked like broken glass
When she fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When she started coming round
But she couldn t make him stop
And she wouldn t let it go
So everytime she got back up
Like broken glass went tumblin down
Tumblin down

First time that i saw your face
You looked so lost and kind
Should have recognized that
Troubled look
From the road i left behind
But i thought that i could comfort you
Or was it you could comfort me
Never saw your anger till you blew
Never saw your anger till you blew

And i feel
Oh i d feel like broken glass
When i fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When i started coming round
But i couldn t make you stop
And you wouldn t let it go
So everytime i got back up
Like broken glass went tumbling down

The slightest thing could spark you
There was always hell to pay
I could feel your darkness in me
And i knew just what to say
And the rest i can t remember
But it sounded like a gun
But it could have been a firecracker
It could have been a firecracker
Made me run

And you looked
Oh you looked like broken glass
When you fell to the ground
I heard the sound of thunder
Trailing off
When you started coming round
But i couldn t make you stop
And you wouldn t let it go
So this time when you got back up
Like broken glass you went
Just like broken glass
Just like broken glass
tumbling down tumbling down
