“Tears Will Fall Where They May . . .”

Tears will fall where they may
Tears will dry and fade away
The sun will shine another day
Love’s bound to come your way

Throughout the years,
I’ve shed many tears
Waiting on you to
Come back around
Like a shooting star
Burning bright from afar
No trail to trace
Life alone I face

As time flows by
I think back why
You left me alone
Fending on my own
Swallowing my broken pride
Bitterness I can’t hide
My smile’s in place
Etched upon my face

My years have flown
My sins I own
Mistakes I have made
Cards I have played
The fix was in
They played to win
Money was their aim
Life is no game

My soul is free
Please let me be
I can’t stand sin
Alone I will win
Like a sweet wine
It’s taste is divine
My points driven home
My heart beats alone

Like a drunken fool
Upon a broken stool
Falling upon the floor
Staggering out the door
My pride set aside
Heart still beating inside
Vision blurred by wine
Faking that I’m fine

Merlot fuels my dreams
Without love it seems
Yet silently I pray
For my wedding day
Outstretched arms open wide
Hiding my feelings inside
Waiting for my bride
My dream won’t subside

Tears will fall where they may
Tears will dry and fade away
The sun will shine another day
Love’s bound to come your way

Perhaps that day’s today . . .
