I Want My Tears Back Songtext
von Minniva

The treetops, the chimneys, the snowbed stories, winter grey
Wildflowers, those meadows of heaven, wind in the wheat

A railroad across waters, the scent of grandfatherly love
Blue bayous, Decembers, moon through a dragonfly′s wings

Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
Where′s dear Alice knocking on the door?
Where's the trapdoor that takes me there?
Where the real is shattered by a Mad Marsh Hare

Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lust in me

I want my tears back
I want my tears back now

A ballet on a grove, still growing young all alone
A rag doll, a best friend, the voice of Mary Costa


Where is the wonder? Where′s the awe?
Where′s dear Alice knocking on the door?
Where's the trapdoor that takes me there?
Where the real is shattered by a Mad Marsh Hare

Where is the wonder? Where′s the awe?
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lust in me

Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lust in me

I want my tears back
I want my tears back now

Hey
Ha-ta
Kay-o-lay-oh
Yee-haw


Where is the wonder? Where′s the awe?
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lust in me

Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lust in me

I want my tears back
I want my tears back now!
