These Tears

I see the tears run down her face

Unhappy in her happy place

What it is I think I know

She's trying hard to let him go

She goes

These tears are all I have

Are all I have to remind me

These sweet tears are all I have

Are all I have

Falling gently they begin

soft and salty on her skin

She keeps them coming through the night

If I could only make it right

But she doesn't want these tears to stop

She'd rather he was there than not

And they can be his epitaph

And if she didn't cry, she'd laugh

These tears are all I have

Are all I have to remind me

These sweet tears are all I have

Are all I have
