Tear by Tear

Sometimes I cry in church And I can't even tell you why It's a mystery Ooh ooh Or the sound of a guitar That breaks me with its melancholy melody Ooh ooh So I keep it all inside, Out of fear and useless pride And I'm tired of hiding here Behind this barricade Tear by tear I'm letting go Tear by tear I'm learning how to show The real me who only cries alone And if I have to cry and ocean Then I'll dive in and find my way home Tear by tear All the colors of my past Are lost somewhere Inside a faded photograph Ooh ooh I think about the people And the places and the moments That I can't get back Get back No more keeping it inside, Out of fear and useless pride. 'Cause I'm tired of hiding here Behind this barricade Tear by tear I'm letting go Tear by tear I'm learning how to show The real me who only cries alone. And if I have to cry and ocean Then I'll dive in deep and find my way home, Tear by tear. I'm setting myself free, I'm finally coming clean. Tear by tear I'm letting him go; Tear by tear I'm learning how to show The real me who only cries alone. And if I have to cry and ocean Then I'll dive in deep and find my way home Tear by tear, Tear by tear.
