Beautiful South - How Long's A Tear Take To Dry lyrics

When a woman has no breeze?

How long's a tear take to dry

When a woman's, when a woman's on her knees?

How long's a tear take to dry

When a woman hasn't sinned?

How long's a tear take to dry

When the weather, when the weather brings no wind?

Look I'm sorry that I hurt you

You look a million dollars and a dime

Time's the greatest healer

But love's the greates stealer of all time

I'm so sorry, (make it plural) - My heart's broken, (mine's the same)

I still love you, (make it plural)

You're so sweet!

The flowers smell sweeter, the closer you are to the grave

The flowers smell sweeter, the closer you are to the grave

How long's a tear take to dry

When almighty brings is rain?

How long's a tear take to dry

And do tears, and do tears really stain?

This heart was like a tardis

I went and lost the key in a fight

I've neverfound a locksmith

Will you be my locksmith tonight?

(Will I shite)

I'm so sorry, (make it plural) - My heart's broken, (mine's the same)

I still love you, (make it plural)

You're so sweet!

The flowers smell sweeter, the closer you are to the grave

The flowers smell sweeter, the closer you are to the grave

How long does sorry really last

Is it tattooed upon your heart?

Or is it hung in a museum

With your Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa ex-ass art?

I have no summer, (I'll buy you summer)

I'll buy July, if December makes you cry

A little or no trace face belies a lie of many days gone by

A little or no trace face belies a lie of many days gone by
