Paul Tiernan – If The Glass Breaks lyrics

And there it touched the ground

I couldn't tell if I was dreaming

The world she whispered is made of glass

Raise the roof and climb inside

Under the shadow of a clock

I heard the garden gate close behind her



If the glass breaks, will we all fall out?

If the cradle falls will we still find things to laugh about?

If the glass breaks, will we all fall out?

If the message gets lost will we still remember what it was?



And there I touched her candle flame

And learned the joy and pain of burning

And if this love is made of glass

Will the hammer always be falling?

Oh, gazelle, I hold you dearly

This lion's heart is always yours





If the glass breaks, will we all fall out?

If the cradle falls will we still find things to laugh about?

If the glass breaks, will we all fall out?

If the message gets lost will we still remember what it was?



I'll be your tightrope walker

You'll be my playground girl

And all this talk of danger

Will surely turn to gold



If the glass breaks, will we all fall out?

If the cradle falls will we still find things to laugh about?

If the glass breaks, will we all fall out?

If the message gets lost will we still remember what it was?
