Tears

I once knew a perfect love
It was free and sent from above
But I took it for granted until the day
Upon winged flight a bird bore you away

Now I watch you leaving with tears
Feeling what you gave me for years
Like the sun up in the sky gives to the earth
Never wondering how much its light is worth

And sometimes I cry
Sometimes I fall
Sometimes I'm scared
Scared of it all... scared of it all

If the grass grows greener somewhere
Who can say that life isn't fair?
In a moment every dream can disappear
I kiss your cheek and whisper softly in your ear

There's so much you've given to me
Through these tears I now can see
Only love given freely will show the way
And with time, the pain will fade away

But sometimes I cry
Sometimes I fall
Sometimes I'm scared
Scared of it all

Someday I'll find a way
Back to your arms
Into that happy place
Where we both felt love

But sometimes I cry
Sometimes I fall
Sometimes I'm scared
Scared of it all
What if my dreams
Never come true
Sometimes I cry
I cry over you... cry over you
