Andy Griggs Tears And Time lyrics

Nothing I can do is gonna change
The fact you're gone away, now
God knows I've tried
And nothing I can do can stop the rain
From falling on my face, now, every night

I'm stuck here in the past
I can't move on, I can't go back
It's just not fair
I wake up in a sweat, all soaking wet
I reach out, but you're not there

So I cry
And watch the days roll by
I miss the way you love me
And I die down deep inside
But I will survive,
Just give me tears and time

Tears can wash away the emptiness
Take it like a river to the sea
Time can wrap its arms around the pain
'Til it becomes a tender memory


I'm still here all alone
The world's so dark, since you've been gone
It's just not fair
I call out your name
But there's just silence, always the same
Unanswered prayer

So I cry
And watch the days roll by
I miss the way you love me
And I die down deep inside
But I will survive
Just give me tears and time

Yeah, God, I cry
And watch the days roll by
But I will survive
Just give me tears and time
