Dreams of Clay Lyrics

I'd been building hopes so long,
Honey, I must have lost sight of what went wrong.
'Cause in sorrow's blinding light today,
Baby, it looks like my dreams were made of clay.
Years of yearning spent for you,
Honey, I know now were the cravings of a fool.
I guess your wants just slipped away,
And baby, it looks like my dreams were made of clay.
I knew love could toss you down,
And leave you there to crawl around.
But never thought that was a fall we'd make.
Getting up was nothing new,
The kind of thing heart's learn to do.
But knowing how doesn't mean its easy to take.
So I'll forget about plans we had for me and you,
And dwell on thoughts lonely lives persue.
Praying memories don't stay,
'Cause baby, it looks like our dreams were made of clay.

I knew love could toss you down,
And leave you there to crawl around.
But never thought that was a fall we'd make.
Getting up was nothing new,
The kind of thing heart's learn to do.
But knowing how doesn't mean its easy to take.
So I'll forget about plans we had for me and you,
And dwell on thoughts lonely lives persue.
Praying memories don't stay,
'Cause baby, it looks like our dreams were made of clay.
Yeah baby, it looks like our dreams were made of clay.
