Song Lyrics

A Song of Tears

Cryin' I came into this world
Not asking to be born
Entered in the season of cold
my heart already filled with scorn


Strangers gathered 'round me
lookin' at my eyes of blue
Trying to find out why I cry
Well, what else was I to do

Those were the days of yesterday
and things haven't really changed
my eyes turned from blue to gray
and my tears are my voice today

Tears roll down in the dark of night
for all the reasons we're at war
the earth can be such a dreary sight
when one journeys to explore


Cryin' I came into this world
Not asking to be born
Entered in the season of cold
my heart already filled with scorn


Seeing the many homeless and hungry
And to feel the disease of greed
If our souls were moved to change things
We could harvest a different seed

Yet the crops of greed rage on and on
From sea to shining sea
And victory will not be won
Until we all unite and agree


Your tears I see and you see mine
we battle on til the bitter end
And though we suffer thru the seasons
There's a message that we can send-
Together we can change our ways and transcend.
