That's hidden inside. Store all the sorrow Hide all the fears Pray for the courage To hold back the tears. The rain smells so sweet When the storm is complete. The tears will deplete All the pain of deceit. Dewdrops and raindrops Disappear when the storm stops Eavesdrop on the teardrops To find why the love stops.
Nothing makes the pain stop It just hides in the teardrops.
