I don't know why this single was dropped from her final album, maybe because of its poor chart performance but the lyrics of the song tell exactly what some of us feel or have felt before. quite a number of persons can relate to these deep lyrics..its even better when heared..its a beautiful mid tempo electropop ballad from kelly rowland...i was streaming songs on the net when i came across the song..it tells of a relationship which has gone sour but people outside see it as beautiful, not knowing the pain and stress you go through to make it work. it all boils down to not judging a book by its cover which of course most people don't adhere to. it really isn't all about romantic relationships, it could be between two best friends or even flat mates....i have had my fair share of such where the whole world sees it as beautiful and don't understand why it haas to end, in fact they are all rooting for you guys to be together because you look so good and seem like a role model or an ideal couple or friendship that people have to look up to or a reference point or hope that such 'pure' love still exists despite how selfcentered the world has become, they don't want that star they have made out of your relationship: their little beam of hope to die. but then they really do not know the hell you are going through or pain that's hidden by those smiles...you want to get out and take in air so you don't get suffocated by that toxic relationship but then everyone just keeps judging you and asking why you want to destroy what you have, not knowing all you have is pain even though it appears all so beautiful. they keep talking and asking you questions but never really listening to what you are telling them, never feeling your pain or truly trying to empathise with you. they all just believe you guys are meant to be together..you become so tired of explainin your self that you either just ignore them and do what's best for you or you bow to their pressure and do what seems to be socially right, pleasing the public and hurting your self. this song says it all, our inner most feeling, the way things are..it speaks the truth we never really have the opportunity of saying out loud, pouring out the words right from the deepest parts of our hearts.
When we finally get out of such relationships or friendships or business deal or just whatever seems to be taking our strength and we finally grow the balls to tell everyone to shut the hell up and mind their damn business becuase they don't know our pain or know what we are going through niether do they know what's best for us because it's our life and our sanity at stake.
You finally get to live a stress free life, seeing things clearly and then you realise how much of your life and energy you wasted trying to make it work but in the end it really wasn't worth. you begin to regret how much you blamed yourself
that the relationship went wrong because it really takes two to tangle...looking back at the time spent in building such relationships all you feel is resentment and how much of your love got watsted on someone who didnt deserve even an inch of it. though at first you feel you won't make it without them or that your life would never be the same but after a while you realise how peaceful and beautiful your life becomes...here is the lyrics of the song.....
ROSE COLOURED GLASSES- KELLY ROWLAND
Everybody's saying that we should get back together
And everybody's saying that we meant to be together
Everybody's saying how the love was so damn perfect
And I ain't never seen a bit of it, don't think it's worth it cuz
They ain't been through the things that you put me through and
They ain't seen all the things that I've seen in you
and they ain't never cried the tears you made me cry
So, they can't be the judge cuz,
They don't know what I know
They never seen that part of you
They know the lies I know the truth
They say stay I say goThey never seen our scars before
They think our love is beautiful
Cuz everything's beautiful when you're looking through rose colored glasses
Everything seems amazing when you see the view
I n rose colored glasses
Take'em off ...
Now everybody's thinking I was just too scared to love you
You got em all believing that I folded under pressure
It's crazy how I gave my best I tried so hard to love you
I can't believe that all this time my pain just bought you pleasure
But they ain't been through the things that you put me through
And they ain't seen all the things that I seen in you
and they ain't never cried the tears you made me cry
So, they can't be the judge cuz
They don't know what I know
They never seen that part of you
They know the lies I know the truth
They say stay I say go
They never seen our scars before
They think our love is beautiful
Cuz everything's beautiful when you're looking through rose colored glasses
Everything seems amazing when you see the view
In rose colored glasses
Take'em off ...[x2]
