Tear by Tear Songtext
von Rita Wilson
Tear by Tear Songtext
Sometimes I cry in church
And I can′t even tell you why
It's a mystery
Ooh ooh
Or the sound of a guitar
That breaks me with its melancholy melody
Ooh ooh
So I keep it all inside,
Out of fear and useless pride
And I′m tired of hiding here
Behind this barricade
Tear by tear I'm letting go
Tear by tear I'm learning how to show
The real me who only cries alone
And if I have to cry and ocean
Then I′ll dive in and find my way home
Tear by tear
All the colors of my past
Are lost somewhere
Inside a faded photograph
Ooh ooh
I think about the people
And the places and the moments
That I can′t get back
Get back
No more keeping it inside,
Out of fear and useless pride.
'Cause I′m tired of hiding here
Behind this barricade
Tear by tear I'm letting go
Tear by tear I′m learning how to show
The real me who only cries alone.
And if I have to cry and ocean
Then I'll dive in deep and find my way home,
Tear by tear.
I′m setting myself free,
I'm finally coming clean.
Tear by tear I'm letting him go;
Tear by tear I′m learning how to show
The real me who only cries alone.
And if I have to cry and ocean
Then I′ll dive in deep and find my way home
Tear by tear,
Tear by tear.
And I can′t even tell you why
It's a mystery
Ooh ooh
Or the sound of a guitar
That breaks me with its melancholy melody
Ooh ooh
So I keep it all inside,
Out of fear and useless pride
And I′m tired of hiding here
Behind this barricade
Tear by tear I'm letting go
Tear by tear I'm learning how to show
The real me who only cries alone
And if I have to cry and ocean
Then I′ll dive in and find my way home
Tear by tear
All the colors of my past
Are lost somewhere
Inside a faded photograph
Ooh ooh
I think about the people
And the places and the moments
That I can′t get back
Get back
No more keeping it inside,
Out of fear and useless pride.
'Cause I′m tired of hiding here
Behind this barricade
Tear by tear I'm letting go
Tear by tear I′m learning how to show
The real me who only cries alone.
And if I have to cry and ocean
Then I'll dive in deep and find my way home,
Tear by tear.
I′m setting myself free,
I'm finally coming clean.
Tear by tear I'm letting him go;
Tear by tear I′m learning how to show
The real me who only cries alone.
And if I have to cry and ocean
Then I′ll dive in deep and find my way home
Tear by tear,
Tear by tear.
