Tears Dry on Their Own

Paroles
Writer(s): Nikolas Ashford, Valerie Simpson, Amy Winehouse

All I can ever be to you

is the darkness that we knew

and this regret I've got accustomed to

Once itwas so right

when we were at our high

waiting for you in the hotel at night

I knew I hadn't met my match

but every moment we could snatch

I don't know why I got so attached

It's my responsibility

and you don't owe nothing to me

but to walk away I have no capacity

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day but I'm grown

And in your way in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own

I don't understand

why do I stress a man

when there's so many bigger things at hand

We coulda never had it all

we had to hit a wall

so this is inevitable withdrawal

Even if I stop wanting you

a perspective pushes through

I'll be some next man's other woman soon

I shouldn't play myself again

I should just be my own best friend

not myself in the head with stupid men

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day but I'm grown

And in your way

in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own

So we are history

Your shadow covers me

The sky above

a blaze

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day but I'm grown

And in your way

in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own

I wish I could say no regrets

no emotional debts

'Cause as we kiss goodbye the sun sets

So we are history The shadow covers me

The sky above a blaze that only lovers see

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day but I'm grown

And in your way

in this blue shade

My tears dry on their own oh

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day

but I am grown

And in your way my blue shade

My tears dry on their own

He walks away

The sun goes down

He takes the day but I'm grown

And in your way my deep shade

My tears dry
