Holly Cole - Don't Let The Teardrops Rust Your Shining Heart lyrics

Sorrow is a lonely road Rain alike your tears Its heavy on the roof On the roof above your head Tomorrow is a lovers town That's been beaten down Hand of winter holds Life we've lived Instead of drowning in dispair For I find small comfort in a bottle When we're apart They say don't let the teardrops rust you shining heart I used to drive all night for you While the children were asleep As the dawn broke on your roof Back into the house I'd creep Where my husband slept alone Of course he must have known For we always hide the truth For fear of losing what we own So don't forget the words that we choose And constantly misuse For they were written down Everytime we were apart They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart So don't forget the words that we choose And constantly misuse For they were written down Everytime we were apart They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart Don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
