Tears To Tell

We weathered rough storms together
Couldn't conceive of the end
When I heard of your leavin'
It came as a shock and surprise
Like the deepest kinds of love
Lost on the inside
Locked right on the inside

What is the greatest expression of love,
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me with tears to tell

I couldn't be the one to hold you stop you go
It is like stripping the soul
Letting all the finest pieces go
You know these feelings between us
Could not be expressed
You will never know my old secrets
They are so deeply felt they are so deeply felt

What is the greatest expression of love
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me
What is the greatest expression of love,
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me with tears to tell

Leaving me with my anecdotes and private jokes
The memory of a friend
You don't seem to know my old secrets
They are so deeply felt they are so deeply felt

What is the greatest expression of love
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me
What is the greatest expression of love
To let go and wish well
But all these finer feelings have left me with tears to tell
But all these finer feelings have left me with tears to tell
