Tears of Blood Songtext

von Ron Pope

I could come by rail
Or baby, I could come by car
I've been missing you in Houston near that bar
And I cannot remember all the reasons that you left
I know none of them rings true inside my heart
I bet you're drinking as you go
Baby, you're so full of holes
I'm surprised the whiskey doesn't pour right out
And I may not be your best choice
But I thought love could feel the void
If you need something, then will not let you down

When the tide comes
Wets the embers
Of the fire you tried to keep
Just remember
That I will wait for you
These tears of blood I weep

It's looking like it's stalled now here on highway 61
At least that's where we were before I fell asleep
And me and all the boys all living hard out on the road
I know you don't care, just talking as I think

When the tide comes
Wets the embers
Of the fire you tried to keep
Just remember
That I will wait for you
These tears of blood I weep

If you could teach me how
I swear I'd stay on the prawn
I just feel like I am falling down
When time has washed away all of the emptiness and pain
The parts of losing help just couldn't kill
Hope you turn and come back home
I'll be waiting here alone
'Cause I swear to God, I know I will love you still

When the tide comes
Wets the embers
Of the fire you tried to keep
Just remember
That I will wait for you
These tears of blood I weep

When the tide comes
Wets the embers
Of the fire you tried to keep
Just remember
That I will wait for you
These tears of blood I weep

These tears of blood I weep
