You Broke a Beautiful Thing

Like a child acting so carelessly
You destroyed something you just didn't see
I'm not angry
Well, How could I be angry with a child?

You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend

Thoughtless child
All wrapped up in the shape of a man
I tried so hard to get you to understand
But I'm so sorry
Why am I the one always saying sorry
Like a mother does for a little child?

You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
I'll never have the pieces again

I hate the way, I keep losing things
And I hate the way when I lose something
I'll never ever find it again

No, I'm not angry
Well, how could I stay angry
At a little child?

You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
You broke a beautiful thing
You know you did it
And it won't ever mend
You broke a beautiful thing
And it won't ever mend
I'll never have the pieces again
