Precious and fragile things
Need special handling
My God what have we done to you

We always tried to share
The tenderest of care
Now look what we have put you through


Things get damaged
Things get broken

I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle

There was so little left to give

Angels with silver wings

Shouldn't know suffering
I wish I could take the pain for you
If God has a master plan

That only He understands
I hope it's your eyes He's seeing through


Things get damaged
Things get broken
I thought we'd manage

But words left unspoken
Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give


I pray you learn to trust
Have faith in both of us

And keep room in your hearts for two

Things get damaged

Things get broken
I thought we'd manage
But words left unspoken

Left us so brittle
There was so little left to give
