Lyrics
Water In My Eyes
Trembling hands hold courage in a drink
A shell of a man sitting on the brink
Your last goodbye still echoes in my mind
So here's to you love, one more time
One foot on the barstool, one stuck in the past
Keeps me sitting here within your grasp
I thought you'd come back - I believed my own lies
No I'm not really crying - it's just water in my eyes.
When your worst enemy stares back at you
In a reflection of a bottle it hurts through and through
But I was taught that a man shouldn't cry
So I'll order another and keep it all inside
One foot on the barstool, one stuck in the past
Keeps me sitting here within your grasp
I thought you'd come back - I believed my own lies
No I'm not really crying - it's just water in my eyes.
Foolish belief keeps me waiting here but I know in my soul
It's just a lie I keep telling myself - what my heart already knows
But I'll take it - it's the only thing left to hold ...
One foot on the barstool, one stuck in the past
Keeps me sitting here within your grasp
I thought you'd come back - I believed my own lies
No you won't see me crying - it's just water in my eyes.
No you won't see me crying - it's just water in my eyes.
