  • Black tears
    One will fall for every good year
    Rolling down my face
    Inside I'm dying
    Outside I'm crying black tears

    Your kiss killed me on that night
    As your lips, left a bitter taste
    And inside I'm dying
    Outside I'm crying black tears

    How did it all go wrong
    We seemed to have it all
    But it's broken
    And I'm running
    And I'm scared
    So I pray to God above
    It's a sin when we don't love
    It's so quiet
    Can you hear me
    Are you there

    Black tears
    Please be gone so I can see clear
    Keep calm and carry on
    But inside I'm dying
    Outside I'm crying black tears

    How did it all go wrong
    We seemed to have it all
    But now it's broken
    And I'm running
    And I'm scared, so scared
    So I pray to God above
    'Cause it's a sin but we don't love
    It's so quiet
    Can you hear me
    Are you there

    Black tears
    One will fall for every good year
    Rolling down my face
    Inside I'm dying
    Outside I'm crying, crying, crying black tears Writer/s: ANGELO T. PETRAGLIA, IMELDA MARY HIGHAM
