I don't know why I keep on believin' you need me
When you prove so many times that it ain't true
And I can't find one good reason for stayin'

Maybe my leavin' would be the best for you

But these rose colored glasses that I'm lookin' through

Show only the beauty, cause they hide all the truth
And they let me hold onto the good times, the good lines
The ones I used to hear when I held you.

And they keep me from feeling so cheated, defeated
When reflections in your eyes show me a fool.


These rose colored glasses I'm looking through
Show only the beauty, cause they hide all the truth
So I'll just keep on hopin', believin' that maybe

by counting the many times I've tried
You'll believe me when I say I love you and I'll lay
these rose colored glasses aside


These rose colored glasses I'm looking through
Show only the beauty, cause they hide all the truth.
