Lyrics

Tears Are in Your Eyes

You tell me summer's here

And the time is wrong

You tell me winter's here

And your days are getting long

Tears are in your eyes tonight

You tell me that you haven't

Slept in days

You tell me sleeping only makes you tired

Anyway

Tears are in your eyes tonight

Tears are in your eyes every night

Although you don't believe me, you are strong

Darkness always turns into the dawn

And you won't even remember this for long

When it ends all right

Tears are in your eyes every night

Tears are in your eyes every night

Tears are in your eyes tonight
