Salt
Salt
There's no more salt in these tears
And there no more tears in these eyes
They're slipping through the cracks
As I hear my heart crying in the night
And I'm thinking about you as well
With wind rapping on the window pane
God knows I would give everything
For a chance to see you again
Chorus:
And the salt has run out of my tears
The salt ran out a long time ago
The salt ran out of my eyes
They went where you went
To a place I could not go
Middle of night, early in morning
I think I hear you whispering near by
I swear I see your shadows in here
You're nowhere when I turn on the light
Tell me where to go from here on out
I've got no more advice left to take
So how long am I going to be like this
How much more until my heart breaks
(Chorus)
I'm a piece of glass with razor edges
Hold me and chances are you'll bleed
I don't think I'll be safe for anyone
Until the day you come back to me
And the stars going dim tonight
The moon, she's fading in the clouds
But inside, my heart is bursting
My mind feels like screaming out loud
I don't think I can cry anymore
Cause crying didn't give comfort I need
So I'll sit here with no tears
Until the night you come back to me
(Chorus)
