Burning Teardrop Blues

Burning teardrop blues (blues song) The teardrops burn When they touch the soul Fools will turn- Away when time takes its toll Mother is crying We’ve all hurt her We’ve all trampled on her We’ve all forgotten her We all look away for her As if we never knew her We’ve stumbled and lost her Where would we be without her Midnight moonlight mile Torn by circumstance Out of style We can no longer Turn the dial Face the truth In the glancing blow of denial The sunrise is red with spite Mother won’t give up without a fight You used to challenge her with all your might Now together we have to save her tonight Jnaf 9-17-03
