You're only in the room next to mine   But this love only hurts sometimes   Don't know what I can say or do   I just know I'm not getting through      The rose petals will wilt away   A new beginning starts today   And all opinions seemed to sway   When you turned & looked my way      [chorus:]   Baby be careful what you say   I might take it the wrong way   Broken glass should make you be careful   Because everything's breakable      Glass ornaments all tucked in a box   Breaking free of the chains & the locks   Nobody wins but you have to choose   If you can do it, you might as well lose      The rose petals will wilt away   A new beginning starts today   And all opinions seemed to sway   When you turned & looked my way      [chorus:]   Baby be careful what you say   I might take it the wrong way   Broken glass should make you be careful   Because everything's breakable      Now I can't see so far   Sitting in the seat of your car   Life has broken us apart   Everything's fragile; even my heart      [chorus:]   Baby be careful what you say   I might take it the wrong way   Broken glass should make you be careful   Because everything's breakable      [chorus:]   Baby be careful what you say   I might take it the wrong way   Broken glass should make you be careful   Because everything's breakable
