Tell Me Those Are Tears of Joy

Many nights we passed as friends
Hoping somehow you could sense
These words I’ve kept inside
Just too much to hide
This aching dream
How could it be
You share the same secret as me
Could this note I set afloat
Find you lost at sea
Tell me those are tears of joy
And not of sorrow for what’s been destroyed
A fragile frame with hallow bones
That some poor fool thought he could make his own
I’ve said too much and now my cover’s blown
Together in this crystal tower
We filled with countless idle hours
Will my heart be the stone
That brings it crashing down
Every glance I’ve analyzed
Every night I recognize
How front of me
For what might never be
Tell me those are tears of joy
And not of sorrow for what’s been destroyed
A fragile frame with hallow bones
That some poor fool thought he could make his own
I’ve said too much and now my cover’s blown
Before a word has crossed your lips
My heart sinks into the abyss
This shadow of a doubt
Is swallowed up by an eclipse
This moment hangs like glacial ice
Afraid to meet those tell-tale eyes
Break the final seal
Just what will they reveal
Tell me those are tears of joy
And not of sorrow for what’s been destroyed
A fragile frame with hallow bones
That some poor fool thought he could make his own
I’ve said too much and now my cover’s blown
I’ve played my hand with words I can’t disown
No matter how it ends I got to know
