Lyrics Emmelie de Forest

Emmelie de Forest

Only Teardrops

The sky is red tonight

We're on the edge tonight

No shooting star to guide us

Eye for an eye

Why tear each other apart?

Please tell me why

Why do we make it so hard?

Look at us now

We only got ourselves to blame

It's such a shame

How many times can we win and lose?

How many times can we break the rules?

Between us

Only teardrops

How many times do we have to fight?

How many times till we get it right?

Between us

Only teardrops

So come and face me now

Here on the stage tonight

Let's leave the past behind us

Eye for an eye

Why tear each other apart?

Please tell me why

Why do we make it so hard?

Look at us now

We only got ourselves to blame

It's such a shame

Tell me

How many times can we win and lose?

How many times can we break the rules?

Between us

Only teardrops

How many times do we have to fight?

How many times till we get it right?

Between us

Only teardrops

(Tell me now)

What's gone between us?

Has come between us?

Only teardrops

(Tell me now)

What's gone between us?

Has come between us?

How many times can we win and lose?

How many times can we break the rules?

Between us

Only teardrops

How many times do we have to fight?

How many times till we get it right?

Between us

Only teardrops

Only teardrops

Oh... only teardrops

Only teardrops

How many times can we win and lose?

How many times can we break the rules?

Between us

Only teardrops

How many times do we have to fight?

How many times till we get it right?

Between us

Only teardrops
