Dave & Sugar – Tear Time Lyrics
Tear time
Starts without warning
Sometimes night
Sometimes morning
All it takes is the smallest thought of you
Then tear, tear time starts
(Crying all night through)
(Tear)
It’s that time again
(Tear time)
Crying time again
(Starts)
Let the hurt begin
(Without warning)
(Sometimes)
Yeah, for love
We cry
(Sometimes)
I forget why
(Aaaaaaah)
We forget to try
(Until morning)
All it takes is the smallest thought of you
Then tear, tear time starts
(Crying all night through)
