Song title: John Hiatt - Thirty Years Of Tears

Edit By: 216.73.216.207

Is this a place I can rest my poor head
To gather my thoughts in sweet silence
Is this a place where the feelings arent dead
From an overexposure to violence
And is this a place I can slowly face
The only one I truly can know

These are tears from a long time ago
I got these tears from a long time ago
I need to cry 30 years or so
These are tears from a long time ago

Oh darling, oh darling, say unto me
Where have you been all my lifetime
Well I have been swimmin the seven sad seas
Fair women have thrown me their lifelines
And I just pulled them on to the waters dark grin
Id have warned em but I didnt know

These are tears from a long time ago
Ive got these tears from a long time ago
I need to cry 30 years or so
These are tears from a long time ago

Well, Ive cried me a river, Ive cried me a lake
Ive cried till the past nearly drowned me
Tears for sad consequences
Tears for mistakes
But never these tears that surround me

Alone in this place with a lifetime to trace
And a heartbeat that tells me its so
Ive got these tears from a long time ago
These are tears from a long time ago
And I need to cry 30 years or so
These are tears from a long time ago
These are tears from a long time ago
Ive got these tears from a long time ago
