Tears Are Not Enough

Tears for souvenirs Tears are not enough

Tears for shields and spears Tears are not enough



Searching for certainty

When it's such an unstable world

Searching for something good

And I'm looking for the real McCoy

Blueprint: That says that boy meets girl

Picture: Girl meets boy

A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl

Picture in a magazine



Yes you've shown your feelings

Yes you've shown you're tough

Said things worth believing

Tears are not enough



Slam that door, slap my face

I don't love you anymore

Dry your eyes Sink or swim

You surmise you can't win

We all make great mistakes



Would I lie

Should I lie

Could I lie to you?

Excuses had their uses

But now they're all used up, all used up



Yes you've shown your feelings

Yes you've shown you're tough

Said things worth believing

Tears are not enough



Tears for souvenirs Tears are not enough

Tears for shields and spears Tears are not enough
