WHAT IS LIFE WITHOUT TEARS

my whole world’s turnin’ against me
the way that I once knew is gone
the people I started this trip with
have fallin’ along the way

my green eyes are dappled by sadness
filled with my bitter tears
the chances i took so long ago
are all catching up with me

(chorus)
What is life without tears?
Would it be good at all?
What is time without regret?
Well I haven’t known it yet

and what of the ones who were with me?
did they at least find some rest?
i curse all the miles between us
then the tears start to fall again

(chorus)
What is life without tears?
Would it be good at all?
What is time without regret?
Well I haven’t known it yet
