Lyrics Tears We Cry - Jimmy Barnes

Tears We Cry

I was alone, then you came along
So unexpected but you made me strong
Never took for granted what I thought was mine
We’d stay together was the plan I had for you and I
Everything seemed right
How could a love that was so special, that it gave you life
Just be taken without warning
I sit here alone and still wonder why
With all the tears we cry
Wash away the pain inside
All the questions are left behind
Floating in the tears we cry
Don’t feel the anger and I don’t feel the pain
Just an empty space where your loving arms would make my day
There’s not a single trace
Now I try to keep believing
It was meant to be
If a God’s so demanding
I’d face all he has just to keep you with me
Every time I close my eyes, I see you there
Then I wonder why
I never keep you
Safe and warm
Nothing’s gonna change the way you came and went
Just like a summer’s day
Just an empty space now that you have gone
Oh, now I keep trying to believe it was meant to be
If there’s a God up in heaven
All I know is he ain’t looking at me
