They're only tears reach up and touch one   They come from the way you touch me   Tears rise like a tide to the moon   When the heart of a woman is open to you      If I cry, it only means I want you closer   Don't be afraid, follow me wherever I go   Stay with me, even if it feels like I'm breaking   'Cause I can only give you everything if I cry      I need your hand touch me in the darkness   Tenderness alone can understand   That love knows, more than it can say   Like a river of surrender, it's washed us away      If I cry, it only means I want you closer   Don't be afraid, follow me wherever I go   Stay with me, even if it feels like I'm breaking   'Cause I can only give you everything if I cry      These tears are water from a flame   Lay down in the fire and let it rain      If I cry, it only means I want you closer   Don't be afraid, follow me wherever I go   Stay with me, even if it feels like I'm breaking   'Cause I can only give you everything   Yes, I can only give you everything if I cry
