Full of Tears

Full Of Tears

Son, those folks who have had all their dreams come true

They sure love to tell you that all of yours can too

But those lucky ones are few and far between

But as for dreams that matter, Son I think you have a shot

Even though there are some face cards that you sure as hell ain’t got

In the ordinary hand that you were dealt

And there’s a sorrow in it you have not yet felt

You see love’s a whole lot harder than it looks to your young eyes

And I’d rather you lay down with truth than good night lullabies

And all I have to comfort you is just my outstretched hand

Son, true love is more full of tears than you can understand

You see every person that you love puts you on a cliff

The view is pure amazing but you’ll fall to pieces if

You lose someone that you let deep inside

And yet love can be beautiful if you are prepared

To tough out all the tribulations no man’s ever spared

The tears I’ve cried would break most hearts in two

But something in that water cleanses you

Love’s a whole lot harder than it looks to your young eyes

And I’d rather you lay down with truth than love song lullabies

And all I have to comfort you is just my outstretched hand

Son, true love is more full of tears than you can understand
