i ve been building hopes so long honey i must have lost sight of what went wrong cause in sorrow s blinding light today baby it looks like my dreams were made of clay years of yearning spent for you honey i know now were the cravings of a fool i guess your wants just slipped away and baby it looks like my dreams were made of clay i knew love could toss you down leave you there to crawl around but never thought that was a fall we d make getting up was nothing new the kind of thing hearts learn to do but knowing how doesn t mean it s easy to take so i ll forget about plans we had for me and you and dwell on thoughts lonely lives pursue praying memories don t stay cause baby it looks like our dreams were made of clay i knew love could toss you down leave you there to crawl around but never thought that was a fall we d make getting up was nothing new the kind of thing hearts learn to do but knowing how doesn t mean it s easy to take so i ll forget about plans we had for me and you and dwell on thoughts lonely lives pursue praying memories don t stay cause baby it looks like our dreams were made of clay yeah baby looks like our dreams were made of clay
