You never loved the softness in my soul
And yet you stayed with me so very long
You said you did not have to be told
And I moved on...
With him it was so different than before
It seemed that he could see right through my soul
And I wanted him -
Yes, I wanted him much more and I said,
"Angel, I adore..."
And I moved on.
I took my dreams and my love
I went quietly
Silently slipping away
I tried hard
But glass figures do break easily
China doll
It breaks my heart to see...
And I went dancing up to him
With rhinestone eyes that said
"Well I'd like to know..."
I flew with the stars I was within
Within, with him - only meant alone
And I moved on...
I took my dreams and my love
I went quietly
Silently making my way
I tried hard
But glass figures do break easily
China doll
It breaks my heart to see...
I said, "It's been so long since I've been held..."
And he said, "I could hold you for days..."
He made love to me
With his eyes especially...
I smiled to know I'd finally found a place
I'm going home...
I'll take my dreams and my love
I'll go quietly
Silently making my way
I'll try hard
To love him more than anything
China doll...
Lady, I adore...
China doll...
Lady, I adore...
China doll...
Lady, I adore...
