Rose-Coloured Glasses Lyrics

I wore my rose-coloured glasses

In those chemistry classes

With you

Oooh, oooh

Oooh, oooh

Just like all the pretty pictures 

That I drew

There was a rosy hue

When I looked at you

Oooh, oooh

You played me

Like a game 

Of truth or dare

The other girls 

All knew

The things you do

They said

Yeah, they said

You don't play fair

Buyer beware

No, no

I didn't care

I couldn't see

I thought I knew

You wouldn't do

That awful stuff 

To me

I thought I knew

I was enough

Enough for you

I'm not the first 

I'm not the last

To see you in this rosy haze

Rose-coloured glasses 

Shoulda figured you out faster

Eyes wide open

But I couldn't see

All the big

And all the little things 

You did to me 

You did to me 

Every night

And every day

You chipped a piece of me away

Then suddenly

There's no escape 

The girl I used to be

Was gone

(I was gone)

(I was gone)

(I was gone)

Buyer beware

No, no

I didn't care

I couldn't see

I thought I knew

You wouldn't do

That awful stuff 

To me

I thought I knew

I was enough

Enough for you

I'm not the first 

I'm not the last

To see you in this rosy haze

Rose-coloured glasses 

Shoulda figured you out faster

Eyes wide open

But I couldn't see

All the big

And all the little things 

You did to me

Oh, ohhh

Like a puzzle

That's all scattered

Pieces missing

All that mattered

I told you so's

Are getting louder

Oh, I lost myself

I couldn't breathe

I don't know how

But you stole me

You stole me

From me (eee, eee)

I'm not the first 

I'm not the last

To see you in this rosy haze

Rose-coloured glasses 

Shoulda figured you out faster

Eyes wide open

But I couldn't see

All the big

And all the little things 

You did to me 

You did to me
