The Tears You Cry


I can see the pain

in the tears you cry

as well as in your eyes.

I feel bad because I can't do anything to help you,

I hope you know that I would,

Only if I could.

My day is ruined

because the pain I see in your eyes

If I could you know I would

melt away those tears you cry.
