if I showed you my tear drops
would you collect them like rain
store them in jars
that are labeled with 'pain'
would you follow their tracks
from my eyes down to my cheeks
as they write all the stories
I'm too scared to speak
would you stop them with kisses
bringing their flow to a stop
as you teach me that pain
isn't always my fault
would you hold my face gently
as you dry both my eyes
and whisper the words
"you're too precious to cry"
if I showed you my tear drops
would you show me your own
and learn that we're lonely
but never alone
