Tears and Time

Nothing I can do is gonna change

The fact you're gone away, now.

God knows I've tried.

And nothing I can do can stop the rain,

From falling on my face, now, every night.

I'm stuck here in the past.

I can't move on, I can't go back.

It's just not fair.

I wake up in a sweat, all soaking wet,

I reach out, but you're not there.

So I cry.

And watch the days roll by.

I miss the way you love me.

And I die down deep inside.

But I will survive,

Just give me tears and time.

Tears can wash away the emptiness,

Take it like a river to the sea.

Time can wrap its arms around the pain,

'Til it becomes a tender memory.

I'm still here all alone.

The world's so dark, since you've been gone

It's just not fair.

I call out your name.

But there's just silence, always the same

Unanswered prayer.

So I cry.

And watch the days roll by.

I miss the way you love me.

And I die down deep inside.

But I will survive,

Just give me tears and time.

Yeah, God, I cry.

And watch the days roll by.

But I will survive.

Just give me tears and time.
