Lyrics Daniel Johnston

Daniel Johnston

Tears Stupid Tears

time is a matter of fact

and it's gone and it'll never come back

and mine, it's wasted all the time

tears, stupid tears, bring me down

i got lucky by coincidence

but i got my feelings bent

and my head looking at the ground

tears, stupid tears, bring me down

how could you know that's where the wind blows

out to the wind that's where my love goes

and it brings me down

tie my brain into a knot

those tears, stupid tears, bring me down

i know that i have a friend

he stays with me all day long

he knows and i walk in his shell

i was born in the body and right from the start

those tears, stupid tears, been tearing us apart

how could i know that's where the wind blows

out to the wind that's where my love goes

and it brings me down

tie my brain into a knot

those tears, stupid tears, bring me down
