"Only So Many Tears"


There are only so many tears you can cry
Till your heart stops breaking
Only so many doors you can try
Till you finally find your way
Out of the dark, into the light
No, the clouds won't always be grey
The sun reappears in the blink of an eye
And there's only so many tears you can cry

There are only so many reasons to give up
You're not even close
You've got to believe in the power of love
That's all anyone knows
And what makes you strong
And as far as weather and woes
Buckets of rain can fall from the sky
But there's only so many tears you can cry

Get on with it, get on with life
Forget about who's wrong or right
Come out and dance with me tonight
And we'll laugh, laugh, laugh all those tears away

There are only
There are only
There are only
... So many tears... you can cry
