On the very night I met you, when I looked into your eyes
Something took effect I didn't realize
There's a light that shines from deep within you that you've always had
Blinding me to see the good but not the bad
Awestruck by the glitter from that day on
Locked tightly to your side until it's gone
But the glitter is eternal and I cannot break the chain
Whatever you may do, I must remain
And don't you know I love you
Won't you let me show you
How I care
Don't build up all my hopes and slowly smash them to the ground
You're playing with my mind, you turn it around
You hurt me very badly once, my lesson should be learned
If you play with flaming passion you'll get burned
And don't you know I love you
Won't you let me show you
How I care
Is the glitter in your eyes a reflection of your heart
Or does it echo something you've been told
Is it just a playful sham designed to keep me where I am
Someone told me all that glitters isn't gold
You have hurt me but I love you, I have tried to go away
But a simple word from you can make me stay
There's a power that is binding, maybe love's its other name
But to me it's called the glitter, it's not a game
And don't you know I love you
Won't you let me show you
How I care
And don't you know I love you
Won't you let me show you
How I care
