Tears Dry On Their Own - Live From Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London / 2007

All I can ever be to you

Is a darkness that we knew

And this regret I've got accustomed to

Once it was so right

When we were at our height

Waiting for you in the hotel at night

I knew I hadn't met my match

But every moment we could snatch

I don't know why I got so attached

It's my responsibility

You don't owe nothing to me

But to walk away, I have no capacity

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day, but I am grown

And in your way, in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own

I don't understand

Why do I stress the man

When there's so many bigger things at hand?

We could have never had it all

We had to hit a wall

So this is inevitable withdrawal

Even if I stop wanting you

A perspective pushes through

I'll be some next man's other woman soon

I cannot play myself again

Just be my own best friend

Not fuck myself in the head with stupid men

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day, but I'm grown

And in your way, in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own

So we are history (ah-ah-ah-ah)

Your shadow covers me

The sky above ablaze

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day, but I'm grown

And in your way, in this blue shade (oh, oh, ooh)

My tears dry on their own

I wish I could say no regrets

No emotional debts

But as we kiss goodbye, the sun sets

So we are history

Your shadow covers me

The sky above ablaze that only lovers see

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day, but I'm grown

And in your way, in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day, but I'm grown

And in your way, in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day, but I'm grown

And in your way, in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own

Thank you!
