The Tears
of Life
Why is it
when we are feeling sad
The tears
are so close by
Why is it
that we feel the pain
And still
try so hard, not to cry
Why do our
falling tears
Make others
feel so weak
Why is it
that when we just can't smile
We go from
being the strong, to the meek
For tears
are not a weakness
They are
the strength of our pain
They make
us recognise it
For from
tears we have much to gain
We gain the
knowledge to recognise
All that
life brings our way
Understand
the lessons that life teaches us
Each and
every day
So cry those
tears when you must, my dear
Let sorrow
be your friend
For healing
has just begun again
From the
beginning to the end
Know that
I will not leave you
When the
tears begin to fall
I will wrap
my arms around you
Until you've
cried them all
Then I will
give you strength
To begin
the day anew
As that's
what true friends are for
And that
is what I'll always be to you.
