CHORUS:
Oh, the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your wall
The marble statuettes are standing steadily in the hall
But will the time be crowd that has you laughing loud help you dry your tears
When the new went up of your crystal chandeliers
I never did fit in too much with folks you knew
It was plain to see that the lights of me didn't fit with you
So you trayded me for the gayity of the well-to-do
And turned away from the love I offered you
REPEAT CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL
I see your picture in the news almost every day
You found the key to society so the stories say
But a paper smile only lasts a while then it fades away
And the love we knew will come home to you some day
REPEAT CHORUS
When the new went up of your crystal chandeliers
