Sorrow is a lonely road,
Rain alike your tears
Its heavy on the roof,
On the roof above your head
Tomorrow is a lovers town,
That's been beaten down
Hand of winter holds,
Life we've lived
Instead of drowning in dispair,
For I find small comfort in a bottle
When we're apart
They say don't let the teardrops rust you shining heart
I used to drive all night for you,
While the children were asleep
As the dawn broke on your roof,
Back into the house I'd creep
Where my husband slept alone,
Of course he must have known
For we always hide the truth
For fear of losing what we own
So don't forget the words that we choose,
And constantly misuse
For they were written down
Everytime we were apart
They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
So don't forget the words that we choose,
And constantly misuse
For they were written down
Everytime we were apart
They say don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
Don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
