Standing in a sea of teardrops It's getting deeper all the time Standing in a sea of teardrops And everyday I feel it rise. For every bit of pain you've caused me Another little tear falls down Baby, if you hurt me one more time Oh, I think I'm gonna drown. --- Instrumental --- Right from the start, I saw you I couldn't resist you I guess my heart somehow knew The first time I kissed you. But it wasn't long till you did me wrong And I felt the first tears begin Oh, but that seems so long ago I've cried an ocean since then. Now, I'm standing in a sea of teardrops It's getting deeper all the time Standing in a sea of teardrops And everyday I feel it rise For every bit of pain you've caused me Another little tear falls down Baby, if you hurt me one more time Oh, I think I'm gonna drown. --- Instrumental --- So many times, oh, you know I've tried to leave you You say you've changed, foolish me I always believed you. Baby but then you hurt me again And there's not a thing I can do I'm sinking I know but I need you so I guess I'll go down loving you. 'Cause I'm standing in a sea of teardrops It's getting deeper all the time Standing in a sea of teardrops And everyday I feel it rise. For every bit of pain you've caused me Another little tear falls down Baby, if you hurt me one more time Oh, I think I'm gonna drown. Baby, if you hurt me one more time Oh, I think I'm gonna drown...

Shadows fallin' in my room Ghost riders dancin' on the moon Night is closin' in again Clutchin' to my tremblin' bed Call your name 'til I'm out of my head Walkin' the backstreets Lookin' for clues I got to get you back If it's the last thing I do I'll go walkin' in a hurricane I'll come crawlin' in a drivin' rain I'll keep searchin' 'til I go insane I got to have your love Lookin' out across the lights I know you're out there Runnin' with the night 'Round and 'round A moth to the flame And when I finally got you home It's just a matter of time 'til you're gone Heartache and shadow draggin' you down This chain around your heart Gonna put you in the ground I'll go walkin' in a hurricane I'll come crawlin' in a drivin' rain I'll keep searchin' 'til I go insane I got to have your love Everytime you go away I got the same old wild goose chase Hangin' on to misery I should-a quit you long ago Just packed it up and hit the road I'm just a junkie Addicted to the flame I'm hooked on the danger I can't quit this game I'll go walkin' in a hurricane I'll come crawlin' in a drivin' rain I'll keep searchin' 'til I go insane I got to have your love

Plant a seed We'll watch it grow Paper hearts Weren't meant to fold Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Autumn leaves turn to gold We'll try to pass side-by-side And form a link through our hands For I am yours and you are mine I'll write your name on the bottom of my shoes Just so you know that I'm yours to keep I'll write your name on the bottom of my shoes Just so you know that I'm yours to keep For I am yours and you are mine We'll form a link through our hands For I am yours and you are mine Mine, oh, mine I'll write your name on the bottom of my shoes Just so you know I'm yours to keep I'll write your name on the bottom of my shoes Just so you know that I won't let you down I'll write your name on the bottom of my shoes Just so you know that I'm yours to keep I'll write your name on the bottom of my shoes Just so you know that I won't let you down Ooooh, oooh I'm yours to keep Oooooh, oooh I'm yours to keep I'll write your name on the bottom of my shoes Just so you know that I'm yours to keep

Ooo ooo ooooo-oo Ooo oh oo It was never black and white Gray spots left colorblind But we jumped with closed eyes Mm, small glimpse of a bright light Still warms the coldest night From deep inside... The core of my bones they hold a secret now And got the gaze to keep the darkness out Wasn't it a great life If only for a moment When you were teaching me to take flight And view something new Wasn't it a great life If only for a moment When I got to share it all with you We could never know if this house could be a home for more Than a day or two There's no happy ever after No silence filled with laughter Only memories From which we grew... Inside of these bones they hold a secret now And got the gaze to keep the darkness out And my bones they hold a secret now And got the gaze to keep the darkness out Wasn't it a great life If only for a moment When you were teaching me to take flight And view something new Wasn't it a great life If only for a moment When I got to share it all with you It's my happy ever after To have held a dream so elegant in my heart In my heart It's my happy ever after To have held a dream so delicate in my arms In my arms Oh, no Wasn't it a great life If only for a moment When you were teaching me to take flight And view something new Wasn't it a great life If only for a moment When I got to share it all with you No, no, no Wasn't it a great life If only for a moment When you were teaching me to take flight And view something new Wasn't it a great life If only for a moment When I got to share it all with you Share it all with you Share it all with you
