Tears and Pavan Songtext
von Strawbs

Where are the tears that you should be crying right now?
I see the world′s weariness in your eyes
I hear your voice soft and sad
Yet your laughter rings
Like carillons of bells in my dreams

Where are the tears that you should be crying right now?
I see the world's weariness in your eyes
I feel your heart beat like the wings of the wild goose
I smell your love on me
I can still taste the tears that you should be crying right now


Oh darling, go to sleep for the night is young
There are many songs yet to be sung
Oh, but I will sing them all to you
Before the night is through
And when she lies in need of care and comforting
So as a child′s toy she is caressed
And yet when cast adrift upon the changing tide
As a ship becomes, she lies at rest

Oh darling, go to sleep for the night is young
There are many songs yet to be sung
Oh, but I will sing them all to you
Before the night is through
Oh darling, go to sleep for the night is young
There are many songs yet to be sung
Oh, but I will sing them all to you
Before the night is through
