Teardrops & Wet Spots
What is a tear but a drop of fear? Salty like the ocean Sweet like an emotion Dreams roll down in streams Teardrops & wet spots Sometimes they break your heart On the window teardrops are real Accuse me of acting how I feel They won't take it back I've said things that recriminate The ideas I disseminate In defiance of compliance Not one decision do I regret Our gay love is a fact Teardrops water the lawn Long after you're gone Droplets rain down unthrottled In puddles & bottles A tear is filled with fear A sob is a mascara smear Teardrops & wet spots They flood the heart With oceans of false notions Teardrops in every beer Salt on the edge of every glass Sometimes they break your heart Teardrops & Wet Spots.
