Tears Falling Down Lyrics

Tears Falling Down lyrics

(Rosanne Cash - John Leventhal)



It's the ghost of a dream

That awakens me

In the night

When no one's around

But I don't hear the sound

Of those tears falling down



And it's the breath of a kiss

And so much tenderness

That drives my knees to the ground

But we don't hear the sound

Of those tears falling down



There's a river that won't forget

And a wind that gives us breath

But in the cradle of our fears

We sleep without tears



And it's your eyes close to mine

That lets in the light

That shows me where love can be found

But we don't hear the sound

Of those tears falling down



There's a river that won't forget

And a wind that takes our breath

But in the cradle of our fears

We sleep without tears



And it's your eyes close to mine

That lets in the light

That shows me where love can be found

But we don't hear the sound

Of those tears falling down

No we don't hear the sound

Of those tears falling down

No we don't hear the sound
