[English]

Once I dreamed

That love would come

And sweep me up away

Now it seems life's passed me by

I'm still alone today

Here come the tears

Looks like it'll always be the same

No one here to comfort me

Here come the tears

All alone, no one cares

So much to give to you all out there

Take me now in your arms

Let me rest, safe from harm

Ohh, I want to be loved

I need to be loved

Won't somebody love me?

Here they come, here come the tears

(Here they come, here come the tears)

Here they come, here come the tears

(Here they come, here come the tears)

Here they come, here come the tears

(Here they come, here come the tears)

Here they come, here come the tears

(Here they come, here come the tears)

Here they come, here come the tears

(Here they come, here come the tears)

(Aaa aaa aaa)

Here they come, here come the tears

(Aaa aaa aaa)

(Here they come, here come the tears)

(Aaa aaa aaa)

Here they come, here come the tears

(Aaa aaa aaa)

(Here they come, here come the tears)

Hear come the tears aaa

Hear come the tears aaa

Hear come the tears
