Vale of Tears

Starry eyes Willow trees, streetlights and butterflies In the childhood years Open fields, bumble bees and dandelions Materials June bugs and bottles glow emerald In the childhood years Spiderwebs, thunderclouds and animals We'll teach you how to close your eyes We'll teach you how to close your eyes We'll teach you how to close your eyes Don't worry love It's just a vale of tears Neither found or lost Neither frail or numb to the cost Neither ill or well An empty shell Waiting 'til the end is near Through a vale or tears Starry eyes Flashlights and shadows so wonderful Don't you agree? In the childhood years Fireworks and sunlight so beautiful How can this be? We'll teach you how to run and hide We'll teach you how to run and hide We'll teach you how to run and hide Don't worry love It's just a vale of tears Neither found or lost Neither frail or numb to the cost Neither ill or well An empty shell Waiting 'til the end is near Through a vale or tears Neither found or lost Neither frail or numb to the cost Neither ill or well An empty shell Waiting 'til the end is near Neither high or low Neither false or true when you know Neither ill or well An empty shell Waiting 'til the end is near Through a vale or tears Through a vale or tears
