Array ( [sid] => 38280 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => How The Tears May Fall [time] => 2004-03-11 17:58:56 [hometext] => Lyrics based loosely on the tune by Matchbox 20: You Won't Be Mine [bodytext] => You’re like a flower,
In the sun,
You’ve opened up,
And I’ve come undone.

So tell me now,
What do I do,
When it’s all wrong,
Still I long for you.

I feel like I’m dancing in rain,
And every drop causes me pain…
Still,

You were right,
This is wrong,
We could play this game,
We could carry on,
But oh…. Oh how the tears may fall.

But still my heart it,
Reaches out,
To take you in,
And erase the doubt,

My empty arms ache,
Without you there,
An empty space,
Filled with empty air.

Oh…but, somehow inside you, you knew,
How to face the fire and get through…

And you were right,
This is wrong,
We could play this game,
We could carry on,
But oh…. Oh how the tears may fall.

Now like a shadow,
On the wall,
With the lights turned off,
You’re not there at all…

And I know but still I can’t see,
How I let you stand there without me…

But, you were right,
This is wrong,
We could play this game,
We could carry on,
But oh…. Oh how the tears may fall.

Oh… oh… How the tears may fall…..

You’re like a flower,
In the sun,
You’ve opened up,
And I’ve come undone.

So tell me now,
What do I do,
When it’s all wrong,
Still I long for you.

I feel like I’m dancing in rain,
And every drop causes me pain…
Still,

You were right,
This is wrong,

We could carry on,
But oh…. Oh how the tears may fall.

But still my heart it,
Reaches out,
To take you in,
And erase the doubt,

My empty arms ache,
Without you there,
An empty space,
Filled with empty air.

Oh…but, somehow inside you, you knew,
How to face the fire and get through…

And you were right,

Oh… oh… How the tears may fall…..
