Far Away where the soft wind blow,
Far away from it all,
There is a place you go
Where teardrops fall.
.
Far away in the stormy night,
Far away and over the wall,
You are there in the flickering light
Where teardrops fall.
.
We banged the drum slowly
And played the fife lowly
You know the song in my heart
Bridge: In the turning of twilight
In the shadows of moonlight
You can show me a new place to start
.
I've torn my clothes and I've drained the cup
Strippin' away at it all,
Thinking of you when the sun comes up
Where teardrops fall.
.
By rivers of blindness,
In love and with kindness
We could hold up a toast if we meet
Bridge: To the cuttin' of fences
To sharpen the senses
That linger in the fireball heat.
.
Roses are red, violets are blue
And time is beginning to crawl,
I just might have to come see you
Where teardrops fall.
