How Long's A Tear Take To Dry? Lyrics - Beautiful South

How long's a tear take to dry 

When a woman has no breeze? 

How long's a tear take to dry 

When a woman's, when a woman's on her knees? 

How long's a tear take to dry 

When a woman hasn't sinned? 

How long's a tear take to dry 

When the weather, when the weather brings no wind? 

Look, I'm sorry that I hurt you 

You look a million dollars and a dime 

Time's the greatest healer 

But love's the greatest stealer of all time

I'm so sorry, make it plural 

My heart's broken, mine's the same 

I still love you, make it plural 

You're so sweet 

The flowers smell sweeter, the closer you are to the grave 

The flowers smell sweeter, the closer you are to the grave 

How long's a tear take to dry 

When almighty brings his rain? 

How long's a tear take to dry? 

And do tears, and do tears really stain? 

This heart was like a [Incomprehensible] 

I went and lost the key in a fight 

I've never found a locksmith 

Will you be my locksmith tonight? 

Will I [Incomprehensible]

I'm so sorry, make it plural 

My heart's broken, mine's the same 

I still love you, make it plural 

You're so sweet 

The flowers smell sweeter, the closer you are to the grave 

The flowers smell sweeter, the closer you are to the grave 

How long does sorry really last 

Is it tattooed upon your heart? Ahh ha 

Or is it hung in a museum 

With your Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa ex-ass art? 

I have no summer, I'll buy you summer 

I'll buy July, if December makes you cry 

A little or no trace face belies a lie of many days gone by 

A little or no trace face belies a lie of many days gone by
