Tears - Strawbs
Where are the tears
That you should be crying right now
I see the world weariness
In your eyes
I hear your voice
Soft and sad
Yet your laughter rings
Like carillons of bells
In my ears
Where are the tears
That you should be crying right now
I see the world weariness
In your eyes
I feel your heart
Beat like the wings of the wild goose
I smell your love
On me
I can still taste the tears
That you should be crying right now
Oh darling go to sleep for the night is young
There are many songs yet to be sung
Oh but I will sing them all to you
Before the night is through
And when she lies in need of care and comforting
So as a child's toy she is caressed
And yet when cast adrift upon the changing tide
As a ship becalmed she lies at rest
Oh darling go to sleep for the night is young
There are many songs yet to be sung
Oh but I will sing them all to you
Before the night is through
Oh darling go to sleep for the night is young
There are many songs yet to be sung
Oh but I will sing them all to you
Before the night is through
