lyrics
I sit in showers and count the hours,
awaiting moments that never seem to arrive.
The water beats upon my shoulders as they
grow so cold, grow so old,
as days go by,
this fire inside is burning out without a doubt.
It's funny how things don't work out,
and when they do, and when they do,
there's only doubt.
Only tears will follow through the years,
and when they come you'll be too numb,
to let them phase you at all.
Only tears will follow through the years,
weighing down on all those dreams,
they never were what they seemed.
Only tears will follow through the years,
and when they do,
don't let them through, don't let them through,
don't let them through.
The water swirls on down the drain,
and I wish to flow down the same vein,
and reach a place to remain.
All we ask is to be loved and understood,
but no one does what they should,
and if they could,
do you think they really would?
See?
That's the trouble in making good.
Well, what's left to do,
when this was all you really knew?
Yet I wait for these moments to arrive,
but until then,
I'll find some hope to revive.
Only tears will follow through the years,
and when they come you'll be too numb,
to let them phase you at all.
Only tears will follow through the years,
weighing down on all those dreams,
they never were what they seemed.
Only tears will follow through the years,
and when they do,
don't let them through, don't let them through,
don't let them through.
Only tears will follow,
always following, always following.
Only tears will follow,
always following, always following.
