Old Tears

Ilse De Lange

walking that line, saying I'm fine

thought I kicked you off my mind long ago

though you tore me apart when you broke my heart

I never,ever,ever let it show



I can't keep this storm inside me anymore

I can't stop this rain that's got to pour



I'm crying old tears

the dam is breaking after all these years

and you know what

I don't care

I don't care who sees me cry

I've been so strong

but there's no way that I can move on

no this pain will never disappear

until I cry these old tears



just the littlest thing

the sound of your name

I start to feel this ache inside my soul

I try to lock it all in push it all down

It's just so hard to keep it under control



I could fill the ocean baby, I'm so blue

The only way that I'll get over losing you



Is crying old tears
