Paul Heaton - Stupid Tears lyrics

[Verse 1] Stupid, stupid tears Playing on our inner fears Held inside your soul for years Fall quietly to the floor Stupid, stupid pain Coming back to haunt again Even knows you by your Christian name It befriended you before Stupid, stupid hurt Runs in every dress and every skirt Either confident or piece of dirt Which way the thread may fall Foolish, foolish heart Didn't realise the time apart Would lead us right back to the very start My love for you across some hall [Chorus] These long and foolish halls The ones we met in, the ones we trawl Look for summer in a winter ball Within these stupid, stupid stupid walls [Verse 2] Stupid, stupid dreams Never understood quite what they mean Now your tears form a running stream And you watch them flow away [Chorus]
