I don't know why I keep on believing you need me

When you've proved so many times that it ain't true

And I can't find one good reason for staying

Maybe by leaving would be the best for you

But these rose colored glasses

That I'm looking through

Show only the beauty

'cause they hide all the truth

And they let me hold on to the good times, the good lines

The ones I used to hear when I held you

And they keep me from feeling so cheated, defeated

When reflections in your eyes show me a fool

These rose colored glasses

That I'm looking through

Show only the beauty

'cause they hide all the truth

So I just keep on hopin', believing

That maybe by counting the many times, I've tried

You'll believe me when I say, I love you

And I'll lay these rose colored glasses aside
