Tears Are Not Enough

Tears for souvenirs

Tears are not enough

Tears for shields and spears

Tears are not enough

Searching for certainty

When it's such an unstable world

Searching for something good

And I'm looking for the real McCoy

(Blueprint)

That says that boy meets girl

Girl meets boy

A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl

Picture in a magazine

Yes, you've shown your feelings

Yes, you've shown you're tough

Said things worth believing

Tears are not enough

Tears are not enough

Tears are not enough

Yes, you've shown your feelings

Yes, you've shown you're tough

Said things worth believing

Tears are not enough

Tears are not enough

Tears are not enough

Slam that door, slap my face

But I don't love you anymore

Dry your eyes, sink or swim

You surmise you can't win

We all make great mistakes

Girl meets boy

A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl

Picture in a magazine

Yes, you've shown your feelings

Yes, you've shown you're tough

Said things worth believing

Tears are not enough

Tears are not enough

Tears are not enough

Would I lie?

Should I lie?

Could I lie to you?

Excuses had their uses

But now they're all used up, all used up

Excuses had their uses

But now they're all used up, all used

Yes, you've shown your feelings

Yes, you've shown you're tough

Said things worth believing

Tears are not enough

Yes, you've shown your feelings

Yes, you've shown you're tough

Said things worth believing

Tears are not enough

Tears for souvenirs

Tears are not enough

Tears for shields and spears
