Sorrow is a lonely road
Rain alike your tears
It's heavy on the roof
On the roof above your head
Tomorrow is a lovers town
That's been beaten down
Hand of winter holds
Life we've lived
Instead of drowning in dispair
For I find small comfort in a bottle
When we're apart
They say don't let the teardrops rust you shining heart
I used to drive all night for you
While the children were asleep
As the dawn broke on your roof
Back into my house I'd creep
Where my husband slept alone
Of course he must have known
For we always hide the truth
For fear of losing what we own
So don't forget the words that we choose
And constantly misuse
For they were written down
Everytime we were apart
They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
So don't forget the words that we choose
And constantly misuse
For they were written down
Everytime we were apart
They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
Don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
