Tears of Gold [Verse 1] The coffee cup is cold upon the stand I'm reaching out to touch your trembling hand We talked in circles till the morning light Trying to make the wrong feel something right I pack the suitcase standing by the door We both know what I'm really leaving for [Chorus] Don't cry those tears of gold for me I'm not the man you wanted me to be I'm just a shadow passing through your room A flower fading long before the bloom Don't cry those tears of gold tonight Everything is gonna be alright [Verse 2] You gave me shelter from the bitter cold A story that I never should have told But there's a highway calling out my name And staying here would only bring you shame So turn your pretty face towards the sun The damage and the healing are all done [Bridge] I know it hurts to see the ending line To taste the bitter dregs of sweet red wine But one day you will thank the stars above I left you room to find a truer love [Chorus] Don't cry those tears of gold for me I'm not the man you wanted me to be I'm just a shadow passing through your room A flower fading long before the bloom Don't cry those tears of gold tonight Everything is gonna be alright [Outro] Tears of gold...
