Helen’s prompt for Song Lyric Sunday is “Glass.” I usually try to use songs from artists we have seen so I can include pictures from our concert adventures because I’m sure everyone likes to see those (LOL) but for this prompt when I went to my iTunes playlist to come up with one, there was nothing by anybody we have seen yet.
However, I did find this one by Leona Lewis and I would see her if she is touring near me. There are several of her songs that I really enjoy. This is one of them. It’s got a catchy beat and I find myself doing a little dance when it comes on.
That I’m am just a fragile individual (so)
I give off this facade that I’m so hard
When in fact I’m far from unbreakable
I’m so afraid to talk and express myself
Keeping all my feelings bottled inside
Of this softer shell that I call my heart
Cause I can’t let love back in again
Love was cold
Before I believed
Cause I went head on with this storm
Like lightning gone insane
There’s none left at all
So I guess I should feel fortunate
But I don’t feel that way
Love’s not in my heart
Cause see love has left me broken
Broken like glass (gla-ha-hass, gla-ha-hass)
Broken like glass (gla-ha-hass, gla-ha-hass)
Broken like glass (gla-ha-hass, gla-ha-hass) (e-e-eah)
So if you see me you can call me,
If you see me you can call me Misses Glass
And here’s the video:
Have you any favorite Leona Lewis songs? This one is from her Spirit album. I also like Bleeding Love and she does a version of “First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” which is good too. Check her out if you haven’t heard her and be sure to check in on some other #SLS participants. Happy Sunday!

I really liked the lyrics to this one. I also think she has a terrific voice. It was nice to hear her sing another song besides Bleeding Love. 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

Yes, sometimes when you hear a song too many times it loses it’s appeal.

It’s a new one for me, and I agree it’s pretty catchy! I like the play on words with misses (mrs.?). don’t know if that was intentional or not, but I like it. 🙂

I think it would have looked funny with Mrs. Good catch though. I didn’t think of that.

Didn’t Blondie have a song “Heart of Glass”?

Yes, she did but I figured that would come to a lot of people’s minds and I was looking for something people might not know. 🙂
