Don't Let The Teardrops Rust Your Shining Heart

Sorrow is a lonely road The rain like your tears It's heavy on the roof On the roof above your head Tomorrow is 'Lovers Town' That's been-beatin' down And of winter hopes The life we've left Instead of drowning in dispair For I find small comfort in a bottle When we're apart They say don't let the teardrops Rust your shining heart I used to drive all night for you While the children were asleep As the dawn broke on your room Back into my house I'd creep Where my husband slept alone Of course he must have known For we always hide the truth For fear of losing what we own So don't forget the words that we choose And constantly mis-use Well they were written down everytime We were apart They say don't let the teardrops Rust your shining heart So don't forget the words that we choose And constantly mis-use Well they were written down everytime We were apart They say don't let the teardrops Rust your shining heart Don't let the teardrops Rust your shining heart
