Mist falls and his voice cracks from the morning

Flowers and my body feels like lead

Someone should have stopped the birds from singing today

Hammers from striking nails into clay



Her face penetrates the blue gray morning

Her eyes pregnant pools produce a tear

Someone should have shouted you had gone in her ear

That summer was stolen away



Such a small love

Such a little tear

You would laugh so loud

If you could see us here



With my one suit

Badly pressed and worn

Like a child left

In the world alone



He speaks I don't hear a word he's saying

Hang on to the pine trees and the snow

Reach out grab the memories that are left for your hand

They'll help you get by for a while



Such a small love

Such a little tear

Is this all that's left

On your cheek so pale



His shallow half lit eyes

His rotted teeth grown on

A drunken madman nights

Ending up in hjail



With night fallings

Drenched in day-glo red

Words collided

Things we left unsaid



Perfumed pillows

Girls that clung so near

Such a small love

Such a little tear
