I want my tears back
The treetops, the chimneys, the snowbed stories, winter grey
Wildflowers, those meadows of heaven, wind in the wheatA railroad across waters, the scent of grandfatherly love
Blue bayous, Decembers, moon through a dragonfly's wingsWhere is the wonder where's the awe
Where's dear Alice knocking on the door
Where's the trapdoor that takes me there
Where's the real is shattered by a Mad Marsh HareWhere is the wonder where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in meI want my tears back
I want my tears back nowA ballet on a grove, still growing young all alone
A rag doll, a best friend, the voice of Mary CostaWhere is the wonder where's the awe
Where's dear Alice knocking on the door
Where's the trapdoor that takes me there
Where's the real is shattered by a Mad Marsh HareWhere is the wonder where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in meWhere is the wonder where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in meI want my tears back
I want my tears back nowWhere is the wonder where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in meWhere is the wonder where's the awe
Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for
Before the years take me
I wish to see
The lost in meI want my tears back
I want my tears back now
