From the recording The Grand Voyage
Lyrics
Tears
Karine Ste-Marie/Sylvain Michel, 2018
Time’s fading slowly
Anger will follow
I can’t live life on my knees
I never heard « Sorry »
My heart is still heavy
Wondering when it will forgive
And friends say I shouldn’t
Compassion is weak
But I know guilt’s stronger than grief
So I’ll let it go
I’ll let them be
I’ll let it go
I’ll let this breathe
And time will dry the tears that I cry
Sailing ain’t easy
The life of the lonely
Hiding from the sorrow we keep
Dirty, their secrets
Painful to confess
Don’t know if I can be free
And maybe I’m blind
Forgiveness seems weak
The anchor is drowning my dreams
So I’ll let it go
I’ll let them be
Yeah they both know
What they’ve done to me
And time will dry the tears that I cry
And time will dry, the tears that I cry
