With These Tears In My Eyes

Her long flowing hair, still makes me weak in the knees But all I ever do, is is just watch her cross the floor I'm here most every night, around this same old time But all I ever do, is just turn and close the door She never looks my way, our lives are not the same Now I'm just a lonely man, who hides here in the shadows I once had everything, till my everything walked away Why our lives have changed, heaven only knows Today I walk alone, with these tears in my eyes Bringing back old memories, of what we left behind My arms are cold and empty, aching for her touch But I'll just go on alone, with these tears in my eyes Last night she sang a song, with a tear in her voice I watched her wipe her cheek, while the music played She paused for just awhile, then continued with the band Another show has ended, as she walked off the stage Tonight she caught my eye, as she looked my way and smiled Her voice was soft and tender, as she sang a song for me But the pains kept flashing back, of how she hurt me so So I just closed and shut the door, and threw away the key Today I walk alone, with these tears in my eyes Bringing back old memories, of what we left behind My arms are cold and empty, aching for her touch But I'll just go on alone, with these tears in my eyes
