Crystal Chandiliers - Charley Pride

Oh the crystal chandeliers light up the paintings on your wall

The marble statuets are standing stately in the hall

But will the timely crowd that has you laughing loud help you dry your tears

When the new wears off of your crystal chandeliers

I never did fit in too well with folks you knew

It was plain to see that the likes of me didn’t fit with you

So you traded me for the gaiety of the well to do

And turned away from the love I offered you

Oh the crystal chandeliers…

I see your picture in the news most every day

You’re the chosen girl of the social world 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

Oh the crystal chandeliers…
