Tears

Who ever said the hand is quicker than the eye

Has never tried to brush away a tear

Quicker than a wink there’ll be something inf your eye

You can’t beat a tear if you try

Tears of joy have graced us all

Tears of sorrow sometimes and all

Some tears betray you just before you know

Some tears don’t ever show

Some tears are harder than stone

Some tears are better left alone

I’ve seen them kept in bottles

I’ve seen ‘em left to dry

You can’t beat a tear if you try
