Jeannie C. Riley - A Taste of Tears lyrics

From the seed of a lifetime to the harvest years A girl knows the bitter and sweet taste of tears The first love was a green love it was free and sincere It ended in heartbreak and the young taste of tears Then came the fool's love of life's wasted years Time changes nothing but the taste of your tears You pray for a true love and soon he appears To share joy and sadness and the sweet taste of tears And the sweet taste of tears
