Is that a tear falling from your eye?
Don't turn away
Why do you cry?
You hide behind excuses
Empty words everyone uses
Can't you say what's wrong?
There's no point being strong
If you are all alone
If you are all alone

I can sense your heartache
It's a mighty earthquake
Breaking down the world
You're trembling like a small leaf
Caught up in the wild wind

But the tears will keep on flowing
'Cause you're hanging by the rope's end
Holding on for dear life
Afraid of letting go
Afraid of letting go

Your eyes are red and swollen
I know that you are hurting
You can cry your heart out
I'll still be there for you

I can sense your heartache
It's a mighty earthquake
Tearing down the world
You think you are forsaken
No, you are mistaken

But the tears will keep on flowing
'Cause you're staring down the high-rise
Deep into the darkness
Afraid of what's below
Afraid of what's below

Your mind is full of sorrow
I know that you are in pain
You can cry your heart out
I'll listen when you're ready

I can feel your heart break
It's a mighty earthquake
From the moment you're awake
You cling onto the fear
So not to disappear

But the grief will never fade out
'Cause you're hiding like a shadow
Right under the sun
Afraid of being loved
Afraid of being loved

If I could take your sadness
I'd scatter it like starlight
So you can find the way
Back to me
Back to me
