Elton John - When The First Tear Shows lyrics

Music by elton john

Lyrics by bernie taupin

Never released

Hold my hand girl much tighter, much much tighter

'cause what I've got to say I only hope and pray

Comes out as well as I rehearsed it yesterday

And baby when the first tear shows

It's a sign for you to go

And baby when the first tear shows

It's a sign for you to go and leave her alone

With the broken dreams that she owns

It's a crime for me to tell you

It's a sin for me to stay

And I'll never look behind me

When I start to walk away

Firl I'm sorry but it's all that I can say

You know that I used to love you so

Enjoy every moment together

Well I'm not the kind of man

To forever hold your hand

And I've said as much as I should say
