Don't Let The Teardrops Rust Your Shining... Lyrics - Everything But The Girl

Sorrow is a lonely road 

Where the rain like your tears 

Beats heavy on the roof above your head 

Tomorrow is a lovers' town 

That's been beaten down 

And the hands of winter holds the life we've led 

Instead of drowning in despair 

For I find small comfort in a bottle 

When we're apart 

Don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart

I used to drive all night for you 

While the children were asleep 

And as the dawn broke on your room 

Back into my house I'd creep 

Where my husband slept alone 

Of course he must have known 

But we always hide the truth 

For fear of losing what we own 

Photos 

So don't forget the words that we choose 

And constantly misuse 

They were written down every time we were apart 

Don't let your teardrops rust your shining heart
