My Tears, My Beautiful Tears

My Tears, My Beautiful Tears Why must I hold back? My eyes, my windows to the world, why must I keep them shut? In my sorrow, why should I trap my Tears and drown? Let them flow, let them run down my burning cheeks Fall to the ground, leave me Don’t stay bottled up, be free My tears, my beautiful Tears Go explore without shame, don’t shield my eye My voice, my beautiful Voice Why do you not sing? Let others hear, don’t fear My hands, my beautiful Hands Don’t shake, don’t shake Tame the fire, calm your heart Release yourself And remember you are free
