Bethany St John Poet Rhyme

Tears On the Wind

Too often the nights were spent 
Crying myself to sleep 
Too often my heart was broken 
For the promises he didn't keep 

It took me years to build up 
After he'd torn so much apart 
But Jesus reached out to hold me 
And pieced together my broken heart 

When I think back and remember 
The hard way it had to end 
Those tears came from a broken place 
But now... Now they're just tears on the wind
