She looked out the window that crosses the street
Cold-coloured houses, so often they'd meet
Tears down the windows and onto her cheeks, it's the way we were
Oooh, I'm glad I found my tears
To wipe away my fears
It's the way we were
It looked so inviting, so often she'd seem
As tears welled within me, so often she'd scream
Heart felt like thunder and sun all in one, it's the way we were
My mind's now left open so often I'm sure
As days turn to decades, miss out all the wars
Sublime and tender, so often it seems such a fantasy
Oooh, I'm glad I found my tears
To wipe away my fears
It's the way we were
Oooh, I'm glad I found my tears
These feelings disappear
It's the way we were
My mind's left so open to hurt and dismay
And love buried deeply 'mongst scatters of hay
Left out in sunshine, so often it seems such a fantasy
We danced round 'til midnight to stars and the moon
Dropped acid 'til midnight and mid-afternoon
Left out in sunchine, so often she seemed so retrievable
Oooh, I'm glad I found my tears
To wipe away my fears
I feel I've found my soul
Oooh, I'm glad I found my tears
These feelings disappear
It's the way we were
Oooh, I'm glad I found my tears
To wipe away my fears
So I can live my life
