Porcelain
She sits alone in a pink chair
By the window of a café
She sips hot tea off a tray
Every weekday like she's on display
But no one knows her name
People ask but she won't say
And when something deep inside her aches
One tear runs down her face
Fragile like a china doll, skin as white as snow
Her glassy blue eyes follow you wherever you go
Pretty like a portrait, paint a little cracked
If she breaks, there's no turning back
She's porcelain (oh)
She's porcelain (oh)
She stares at a vase inside a red room at the art museum
She feels with every part of her being
That she's no longer needed
'Cause her love has no meaning
But no one knows her name (her name)
People ask but she won't say (she won't say)
And when something deep inside her aches
One tear runs down her face
Fragile like a china doll, skin as white as snow
Her glassy blue eyes follow you wherever you go
Pretty like a portrait, paint a little cracked
If she breaks, there's no turning back
She's porcelain (oh)
She's porcelain (oh)
She gazes at a frozen lake
Wishing she could skate
Fragile like a china doll, skin as white as snow
Her glassy blue eyes follow you wherever you go
Pretty like a portrait, paint a little cracked
If she breaks, there's no turning back
She's porcelain (oh)
She's porcelain (oh)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh
By the window of a café
She sips hot tea off a tray
Every weekday like she's on display
But no one knows her name
People ask but she won't say
And when something deep inside her aches
One tear runs down her face
Fragile like a china doll, skin as white as snow
Her glassy blue eyes follow you wherever you go
Pretty like a portrait, paint a little cracked
If she breaks, there's no turning back
She's porcelain (oh)
She's porcelain (oh)
She stares at a vase inside a red room at the art museum
She feels with every part of her being
That she's no longer needed
'Cause her love has no meaning
But no one knows her name (her name)
People ask but she won't say (she won't say)
And when something deep inside her aches

Fragile like a china doll, skin as white as snow
Her glassy blue eyes follow you wherever you go
Pretty like a portrait, paint a little cracked
If she breaks, there's no turning back
She's porcelain (oh)
She's porcelain (oh)
She gazes at a frozen lake
Wishing she could skate
Fragile like a china doll, skin as white as snow
Her glassy blue eyes follow you wherever you go
Pretty like a portrait, paint a little cracked
If she breaks, there's no turning back
She's porcelain (oh)
She's porcelain (oh)
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh
