Every Tear Brings You Closer

Technically, it's song lyrics, but writerscafe doesn't offer song lyrics as an option.

[Verse 1]

I've known you

For a long time

You've always been there for me

It's been many years

And now I wonder

If there's a future for you and me

Is there a chance?

Is there a way?

That you're here to stay

Here for me

And for everything

That we could ever be

 

[Chorus]

Every tear that I cry

Brings you closer

'Til you're mine

Every wish on a star

Brings you closer

You're not so far

Away from me

And from all of my dreams

Of a life for us

Together

Now and forever

 

[Verse 2]

Here we are

It is later

But I'm still your friend

You don't seem to love me

But I'll fight to the end

'Cause I'm not giving up

And I'm not giving in

I am still hoping

That I will win

Your heart

Tied with mine

In the most sacred of vows

Representing everything

That we might be

 

[Chorus]

Every tear that I cry

Brings you closer

'Til you're mine

Every wish on a star

Brings you closer

You're not so far

Away from me

And from all of my dreams

Of a life for us

Together

Now and forever

 

[Verse 3]

And now, we're at

The end of our lives

And finally, you are mine

I've never been happier

I've never been more in love

Than I am with you

And everything that you do

Lifts me up

Gives me strength

To do anything

Everything you do

Gives me wings

So I can live and I can love

I can open my mind

Remembering everything

That we've ever been

 

[Chorus x2 - fade 2nd time]

Every tear that I cry

Brings you closer

'Til you're mine

Every wish on a star

Brings you closer

You're not so far

Away from me

And from all of my dreams

Of a life for us

Together

Now and forever

Author's Note

Don't judge me too harshly, please. I'm not a professional songwriter (I can't even figure out a tune for this song), but it represents everything that I needed it to.

Reviews

[Nathan Durham]

That was straight up amazing! As I was reading this out loud, I could tell that this was meant to be a song. It flows beautifully. When I write my poetry, I like to think of mine as songs. I really like the concept of songwriting and you are very good at it.
