Tears of the Sun - Ladynsax

We carried you in our arms on Independence Day And now you'd throw us all aside and put us all away Oh, what dear daughter 'neath the sun could treat a father so? To wait upon him hand and foot and always tell him "No" Tears of rage, tears of grief Why must I always be the thief? Come to me now, you know we're so alone And life is brief It was all very painless When you went out to receive All that false instruction Which we never could believe And now the heart is filled with gold As if it was a purse But, oh, what kind of love is this Which goes from bad to worse? Tears of rage, tears of grief Why must I always be the thief? Come to me now, you know we're so alone And life is brief We pointed you the way to go And scratched your name in sand Though you just thought it was nothing more Than a place for you to stand I want you to know that while we watched You discovered no one would be true That I myself was among The ones who thought It was just a childish thing to do Tears of rage, tears of grief Why must I always be the thief? Come to me now, you know we're so alone And life is brief

You will never be the one, but you will be yet another one. Its true that I may have told you things, Like that I'll love you indefinitely But I only tell lies to get inside you and plant these dreams. Then I will let them bloom and consume you beneath the seams. You will be left there all alone, Whilst I go planting dreams. Then you'll learn what you should have known, I never loved you or so it seems... Because I will still try to tempt you with happy things. But the tears of the night will beg you to let it be... I will hurt you And tell you anything to be the one who Can be your everything. I will hurt you And tell you anything to be the one who Can be your everything.

Said, oh yeah, baby, baby Now if there's a smile on my face It's only there trying to fool the public But when it comes down to fooling you Well now, honey, that's quite a different subject So don't let my glad expression Give you the wrong impression 'Cause really, I'm sad (so sad) Oh, I'm sadder than sad Look, I'm hurting, I want you so bad Like a clown I appear to be glad Ooh, yeah, now there's some sad things known to man But ain't too much sadder than The tears of a clown When there's no one around Said, oh yeah, baby, baby, baby Oh, yeah, baby, baby, baby Now if I appear to be carefree It's only to camouflage my sadness In order to shield my pride, I've tried To cover this hurt with a show of gladness But don't let my show convince you That I've been happy since you Decided to go Oh, I need you so Look, I'm hurt and I want you to know Just for others I put on a show Ooh, ooh, yeah, there's some sad things known to man But there ain't too much sadder than The tears of a clown When there's no one around So, just like Pagliacci did I'm gonna keep my sadness hid Smiling in the public eye But in this lonely room, I cry The tears of a clown When there's no one around Now if there's a smile on my face Well, don't let my glad expression Give you the wrong impression Don't let this smile I wear Make you feel that I don't care The tears of a clown, tears of a clown The tears of a clown, the tears a clown The tears of a clown (I'm going downtown) The tears of a clown (I'm going downtown) The tears of a clown The tears of a clown, tears of a clown
