Send Thirty Years Of Tears Ringtone to your Cell
Is this a place, I can rest my poor head
To gather my thoughts in sweet silence
And is this a place where the feelings aren't dead
From an overexposure to violence
And is this a place, I can slowly face
The only one, I truly can know
And these are tears from a long time ago
I've got these tears from a long time ago
And I need to cry, thirty years or so
These are tears from a long time ago
Oh darling, oh darling, you say unto me
Where have you been all my lifetime
Well, I have been swimmin' the seven sad seas
Fair women have thrown me their lifelines
And I just pulled them in to the water's dark grin
I'd have warned 'em but I didn't know
These are tears from a long time ago
I've got these tears from a long time ago
And I need to cry, thirty years or so
These are tears from a long time ago
Well, I've cried me a river, I've cried me a lake
Well, I've cried till the past, nearly drowned me
Tears for sad consequences, tears for mistakes
But never these tears that surround me
Alone in this place with a lifetime to trace
Now a heartbeat that tells me it's so
Well, I've got these tears from a long time ago
And these are tears from a long time ago
And I need to cry, thirty years or so
These are tears from a long time ago
These are tears from a long time ago
I've got these tears from a long time ago
