Sentimental Teardrops

Sometimes I want to be sad Sometimes I want to be happy I just want to feel everything The cheerful and the sappy I just want to be loved as everybody should Sometimes I want to say nothing And still be understood Sometimes it's hard to be easy Tough to be cool Time keeps slipping on past me No matter what I do And if a sentimental teardrop Is running down my cheek I'm holding back a rain cloud That needs to be released I like to hear the rain fall As I go to sleep To wash away those old dreams I shouldn't keep These sentimental teardrops Need to fall From time to time Sometimes I try to be honest Without a doubt I try to tell the truth sometimes But the opposite comes out Sometimes I want to make love I won't deny it Sometimes I want to talk dirty Then feel embarrassed by it Sometimes I want to freak out I want to be numb Sometimes I feel so angry But not at anyone And if a sentimental teardrop Is running down my cheek I'm holding back a rain cloud That needs to be released I like to hear the rain fall It helps me go to sleep To wash away those old dreams I shouldn't keep These sentimental teardrops Need to fall From time to time Sometimes I want to be famous But I don't want to try I can't help but be lazy Hey, maybe that's why Sometimes I want to be modest Civil and restrained Sometimes I want to go naked And not feel ashamed I get so tired of being quiet I want to yell Sometimes I want to know how it feels To be somebody else And if a sentimental teardrop Is running down my cheek I'm holding back a rain cloud That needs to be released I love to hear the rain fall It helps me go to sleep To wash away those old dreams I shouldn't keep These sentimental teardrops Need to fall From time to time These sentimental teardrops Need to fall From time to time
