A Dried Tear
I walk past you in the cold of night
I see you crying...
I have never seen you in my life
Still I feel I know you
I freeze for a moment
Standing still
You glance at me with eyes full of tears
I don't know what to do
I sit down beside you
What must I say
This isn't easy
You scowl at me and ask what I want
I just look at you with a caring face
Your face seems to light up
I see you trying
The blackness of your eye, says it all
The pain you must feel
So deep inside
You lay against my shoulder
The tears don't stop
The darkness around us
All the way to the top
So here we sit
On this park bench
Just me and you
Once again
We fall asleep
As so many times before
I'm here to take away
The heartache and sore
You are my love
I hope this you know
As white as a glove
Is your soul
I've known you forever
You are the one
The light inside you
As bright as the sun
We sit there for hours
On that park bench
The sun rises
Just once again
I look at your face
So beautiful it is
Along your cheek
Runs the ever long line
Of a dried tear
Forever you're mine...
