Patty Griffin - Made of Clay lyrics

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'd 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 again and we'll move on Here's another bit of truth 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 Oh I guess things are different today 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
