If I showed you my tear drops
Would you collect them like rain
Store them in jars
That are labelled with 'pain'
Would you follow their tracks
From my eyes down my cheeks
As they write all the stories
I'm too scared to speak
Would you stop them with kisses
Bring their flow to a halt
As you teach me that pain
Isn't always my fault
Would you lay with me forever
As you dry both my eyes
Tell me you love me
And never say our goodbyes
If I showed you my tear drops
Would you show me your own
And learn while we're lonely
We are never alone
