Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look at me, baby
I've been cryin'
Tears
So many
(So, so, many tears)
Tears
(So, so, many tears)
(So, so, many tears)
(So, so, many tears)
(So, so, many tears)
(So, so, many tears)
(So, so, many tears)
(So, so, many tears)
[Verse 2]
I'm a real good actor
This is a heavy road
Our love's a script and you carry total control
Oh, like a clown, I've been smilin'
Whenever people are around
But when the curtain comes down and the circus is through
No one is left but me, you and all my tears
So many tears
My tears
[Verse 3]
One word could wash them away
One word could take their place
One word could wash them away
One word could take their place
Tears
[Verse 4]
Regretting nothing but the pain
My heart, my life, my world is filled with rain
I'm drowning when the curtain comes and the circus is through
No one is left but me, you and all my tears
[Verse 5]
One word could wash them away (Woo-oh)
One word could take their place
One word could wash them away (So many)
One word could take their place (So many)
One word could wash them away (So many)
One word could take their place (So many)
Tears
(So many tears)
(Tears)
One word could wash them away
[Verse 6]
Baby, I just want you to step back and look in my eyes
I've been cryin', girl
Can't you see?
Oh, girl
[Verse 7]
That drippin' and droppin' and droppin' and drippin'
(One word could wash them away)
And drippin' and droppin' and droppin' and drippin'
And drippin' and droppin' and droppin' and drippin'
(One word could take their place)
And drippin' and droppin' and droppin' and drippin'
And drippin' and droppin' and droppin' and drippin'
(One word could wash them away)
And drippin' and droppin' and droppin' and drippin'
And drippin' and droppin'
(One word could take their place)
[Verse 8]
(All over me)
One word could wash them away
One word could take their place (Tears, so many)
One word could wash them away (So many)
One word could take their place (So many tears)
One word could wash them away
One word could take their place
One word could wash them away
One word could take their place
(Tears) One word could wash them away
One word could take their place
One word could wash them away
One word could take their place (Say it too low)
[Verse 9]
Gotta come in off that stage, baby
Come on home and rescue me
I want you to sing for me, girl
I want you to dance for me, baby
Move that body for me
Come on, baby
[Verse 10]
One word could wash them away
(But you're no girl)
One word could take their place
(Oh, sing it, girl, sing it, girl)
One word could wash them away
(Be it, girl, know it, girl)
One word could take their place
(Say it, girl, be it, girl)
One word could wash them away
(Save it, girl, you are my world)
One word could take their place
(Away all these tears)
One word could wash them away
(Away all my fears)
One word could take their place
(Away all these tears)
One word could wash them away
(Away all my fears)
One word could take their place
[Verse 11]
One word could wash them away
(Tear after tear after tear after tear)
One word could take their place
(Tear after tear, over here, over here)
One word could wash them away
(Tear after tear, over here, over here)
Here
(Tear after tear, over here, over here)
(Tear after tear, over here, over here)
(Tear after tear, over here, over here)
One word could wash them away
(Tear after tear, over here, over here)
One word could take their place
(Tears, so many)
One word could wash them away
(Tears)
One word could take their place
(Tears)
One word could wash them away
(Tears)
One word could take their place
[Verse 12]
(Tears)
(One word could wash them away)
Yo, it's true, I'ma gonna speak the whole crew
(One word could take their place)
So lonely (Tears)
(One word to wash them away)
Come on home (Tears)
(One word to take their place) (Tears)
(One word)
