Lyrics
These Tears Tonight
(Bain/McArthur-Bain/Lawrence)
VERSE 1:
It's another fine mess
A no win situation
Another dead end
And we're running out of time
Are we falling through the cracks
Of a promise to stay together?
We surrender to the silence
of a clichéd broken heart
CHORUS:
Oh we'd never run from the world, when we first set out
But the tide has turned, and left us high and dry
Every cross word, every lie told, remembered for forever
So much trouble raised in these stormy skies
And the rain won't wash away these tears tonight
No the rain won't wash away these tears tonight
VERSE 2:
We've been shouting so long
Can you even remember?
What started this fight
Does it matter who's wrong or right?
Now we're standing on the edge
and the darkness seems forever.
I've been praying we can make it
But we just might lose this time
CHORUS
MIDDLE 8:
Is it too damn late to stop and say we're sorry
Or too far gone to hold each other close.
Are we blind to the fire dying on our story
Is it better to be right, than to be heard
CHORUS
