Nothing Rises to Meet Me
Bill Callahan
They tell me little darling that tomorrow you'll be wed
You thought that you would hurt me but you hurt yourself instead
I'll always be the same old pal just as i years gone by
I'll just sit back and watch you while you sit alone and cry
Tears fallin down your pretty cheek
Tears you cannot hide and tears you cannot keep
They are tears of sorrow and tears of delight
I wish i had a nickel for every tear you shed last night
I just dropped by to tell you that I wish you happiness
I hope that youll forgive me for intruding like this
I hope my dear your happiness will follow through the years
Ill just set back and watch you, while you shed those bitter tears.
Tears fallin down your pretty cheek
Tears you cannot hide and tears you cannot keep
They are tears of sorrow and tears of delight
I wish i had a nickel for every tear you shed last night
