"Here Come The Bitter Tears" lyrics

I was coming to find you
With a bleeding heart, so blue
You were so in love, then

Like you knew what tonight meant
So you savored the time we spent
Falling toward the North Atlantic

I was coming to find you
In your own distress, you'd drown
The rising flood ignored
Your mind's unrest made love a chore

An ending so dramatic
It's sinking, love, and I'm so worn
When the lights dim down, we'll drown again
Let's drown as friends

Here come the bitter tears
You know I tried to warn you
And I hate to see you cry
But you're never on my mind

Here come the bitter tears
The more I got to know you
And I hate to see you cry
But you're never on my mind

I was waiting beside you
In a shivered breath, so blue
You were so in love, then

I was colder than night gets
Under promised dreams, you slept
Falling towards the North Atlantic

Here come the bitter tears
You know I tried to warn you
And I hate to see you cry
But you're never on my mind

Here come the bitter tears
The more I got to know you
And I hate to see you cry
But you're never on my mind
