Lyrics Eagle Eye Cherry

Eagle Eye Cherry

Permanent Tears

On the day of her arrival

No one is there to meet her

Something of a sad one

A girl with permanent tears

Born without a family

Born without a name

And all she ever wanted

Was to wipe her tears away

Wipe her tears away

Away, away

If someone came to love her

And if someone came to be

The one that will protect her

Be a family

Now we will see a smile again

And tears like dreams can be

Something we will never see

Lost in her memory

Wipe her tears away

Away, away

Wipe her tears away

Tears away

Away, away

She's something of a tragedy

Stands in the shade of despair

I want to cast some light onto her world

A world of permanent tears

Born without a family

Born without a name

Free this weeping willow

From drowning in a flood of tears

Wipe her tears away

Tears away

Away, away

Wipe her tears away

Tears away

Away, away

Wipe her tears away

Tears away

Away, away
