Lyrics Jimmy Barnes

Jimmy Barnes

Tears We Cry

I was alone, then you came along

So unexpected but you made me strong

Never took for granted what I thought was mine

We'd stay together was the plan I had for you and I

Everything seemed right

How could a love that was so special, that it gave you life

Just be taken without warning

I sit here alone and still wonder why

With all the tears we cry

Wash away the pain inside

All the questions are left behind

Floating in the tears we cry

Don't feel the anger and I don't feel the pain

Just an empty space where your loving arms would make my day

There's not a single trace

Now I try to keep believing

It was meant to be

If a God's so demanding

I'd face all he has just to keep you with me

Every time I close my eyes, I see you there

Then I wonder why

I never keep you

Safe and warm

Nothing's gonna change the way you came and went

Just like a summer's day

Just an empty space now that you have gone

Oh, now I keep trying to believe it was meant to be

If there's a God up in heaven

All I know is he ain't looking at me
