Lyrics
100 Tears Away
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.
Go ahead and cry now
Just give in to the madness
The only way to feel your joy
Is to first feel the sadness
Go ahead and sail now
Just give in to the ocean
The only way to tame your fear
Is to feel her rocky motion
You're a long way from somewhere you call home
There's a place in your heart, you're not alone
All of the happiness you seek
All of the joy for which you pray
Is closer than you think
It's just 100 tears away
Go ahead and listen
Just give into the voices
You think you're backed into a corner
But you've got so many choices
You're a long way from some place you feel safe
Peace of mine comes from just one place
All of the happiness you seek
All of the joy for which you pray
Is closer than you think
Is just 100 tears away
You're a long way from somewhere you call home
There's a place in your heart, you're not alone
All of the happiness you seek
All of the joy for which you pray
Is closer than you think
Is just 100 tears away
Whatever it is that'll make you feel good
You can have if you want, if you knew that you could
Is closer than you think
Is just 100 tears away
