Tomorrow without you here
Who's heart will guide me
All the answers disappear
Is it too late?
Are you too far gone to stay?
This one's forever
Should never have to go away
What will i do
You know, i'm only half without you
How will i make it through
If Only Tears Could Bring You Back, To Me
If only love could find a way
Oh what i would do
what i would, give if you
Return to me
Some day,
Somehow,
Someway
If my tears could, bring you back,
To me
I've cried you an ocean,
If you'll sail on home again,
Waves of emotion
Will carry you
I know they can
Just let love guide you
And your heart will chart the course
Soon you'll be drifting
To the arms of your true north
Look in my eyes,
You'll see a million tears have gone by
And still they're not dry
If Only Tears Could Bring You Back, To Me
If only love could find a way
What i would do
What i would,give if you
Return to me
Some day,
Somehow,
Someway
If my tears could, bring you back,
To me
I'll hold you close
And shout the words
I only whispered before
For one more chance
For one last glance
There's not a thing that Iwould not endure
If Only Tears Could Bring You Back, To Me
If only love could find a way
Oh what i would do
What i would, give if you
Return to me
Some day,
Somehow,
Someway,
If my tears could, bring you back,
To me
