Let Her Teardrops Speak the Truth

I had a friend who once asked me, for some good advice
He wanted to know exactly what I thought, about his future wife
I said man it's not up to me, and should he need some proof
Just look into her deep blue eyes, and let her teardrops speak the truth

He looked at me in disbelief, half smiled along the way
He wondered where I'd come up with that, Where had I heard such a thing
I said trust me man you'll realize, Just do as I have told
And let her teardrops speak the truth, if you truly need to know

Let her teardrops speak the truth
Let them tell you how she feels
There's a difference between the happy ones
And the sad ones that she feels

Don't wipe away the happy ones
Let them fall down endlessly
Become her everything and all
That she will ever need

Don't ignore the falling sad ones
And Wipe the pain from here eyes
Remember you can't stop them all
But at least you have to try

The difference should be easy
I hope you realize
A woman's soul is like a mirror 
If you look into her eyes

When you lay her down and make sweet love
For the very first time 
That all telling tear should come on out
That right there will be your sign

Then take her in your arms
And hold onto her so tight 
So the pain of all her past loves go
And she knows that this is right

But should the tears last more than a few
You may want to look the other away
That's her telling you she still feels for
The one who got away

Let her teardrops speak the truth
Let them tell you how she feels
There's a difference between the happy ones
And the sad ones that she feels 

Don't wipe away the happy ones
Let them fall down endlessly
Become her everything and all
That she ever needs

Don't ignore the falling sad ones
And wipe the pain far from here eyes
Remember you can't stop them all
But at least give it a try

Well my buddy came to see me
A few weeks down the road
Said I can't thank you for the advice enough
But I had to let her go

You see those tears were telling 
Just like you claimed they'd be
It's when we made love it became so clear
That who she loved, wasn't me

So though I'm saddened Now
Please accept my apologies
My understanding is now better 
Her tears were all the proof I'd need

I said that is what I'm here for
Should you ever need advice
Now come over here, let's drink a beer
And get on with our lives

Don't worry about tomorrow
We still have our youth 
And should you feel the need to shed a tear

Let your teardrop speak the truth.....
