Bottle Of Tears
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't back down you're giving me treats
You know that now that I found it
I know that I need it
Don't back me up when you say nothing at all
If I was two feet taller
I'd be over the wall
Don't start thinking that I'm too needy
I could give you love for nothing
There's nothing for me
We're like Arabian nights
When the sun goes down
But tell me in the day
That you don't want me around
Hold me now I'm gonna try
If you don't pour salt water into my eye
We've got a bottle of tears stored up inside
Maybe you'll laugh but the laughs all mine
Hope now baby it's not getting better
As your hopes stay slipping around in the rain
Don't start pulling around at the sheets
When I've got oodles of love growing into me
We've got a bottle of tears stored up inside
Maybe you'll laugh but the laughs all mine
Maybe you'll laugh but the laughs all mine
