Two Tears

Joan Armatrading


I cried two tears
And not for the first time
I cried these tears for you

I cried all night
And I promise myself
I won't ever cry this way again

Just like the sun
Follows every rain storm
And night gives way to dawn

You treat me bad
Try to drag me right down
But from here I can still see the stars

My luck just changed
Once I open that door
I am never gonna take you back

Hey, it's a miracle
Time just stood still
So I can watch the frame

And what a shock
What a revelation
This is life changing

Blows raining down on me
And me, I crawl like a puppy dog
And I answer as soon as
I hear you call, yeah

No more, no more
No more crying eyes now
I've cried too much for you

I cry all night
And I promise myself
I won't ever cry this way again
I won't cry this way again, no, no

I cried two tears
(I cried enough)
And not for the first time
(No more, it's time)
I cry these tears for you
(It's time to say goodbye, goodbye)

Hey, I own myself
Yeah, I gave you control
But I'm taking my possessions back

You crowned you king
But your princess just woke from a sleep
Yeah, you're a hypnotist

Hey, it's a miracle
Time just stood still
So I can watch the frame

And what a shock
What a revelation
This is life changing

Blows raining down on me
And me, I crawl like a puppy dog
And I answer as soon as
I hear you call, yeah, yeah

Hey, it's a miracle
Time just stood still
So I can watch the frame

And what a shock
What a revelation
This is life changing

Blows raining down on me
And me, I crawl like a puppy dog
And I answer as soon as
I hear you call

Hey, it's a miracle
Time just stood still
So I can watch the frame

And what a shock
What a revelation
This is life changing
