Love and Tears Lyrics

There's a tremor on this highway
Like a tower that can only fall
Cause when you build it on the blood of another nation
It's a true indictment of us all
Let the singer be born
From the fabric of our greater need
And let the words and you carry each other
And build, oh brother I will

This debt
How could you think that I'd forget
I'm thinking Love and tears
Love and Tears
Will stay here til this darkness disappears
Once I met a wicked man
He smiled shyly as he offered me some sweetbread
And I never knew he was grandpa
Til I found my mother crying by the bed

Let the strong wind blow through me reason
Let the stars renew my weary eyes
You're my friend, I'll say it again
And by then I think you won't be so surprised

This said
Don't make me jump right out of bed
Forsaking love and tears
Love and tears
Will stay until this darkness disappears
This debt
I know John Lennon won't forget
I'm thinking love and tears
Love and tears
Will stay until this darkness disappears
Will stay until this darkness disappears
Will stay until this darkness disappears
