For More Tears
Too many teardrops
And still we're crying out loud
For more tears
They said, "You’d never forget"
But the earth is thirsty yet
And the dark bells will chime
For our sins and our crimes
96 times
Four more tears
One hundred years have passed
A poppy pinned on your breast
For more tears
You said that we’d never part
Do you take that to your heart?
And the muffled drums will drag
While they're folding up the flag
Zipping up the bag
For more tears
Oh, I can't stop for trying
Oh, so come to now
And don't delay
There’s too many tears to wipe away
Don’t be betrayed
Eight angry men and four furies
Surely a hangman's jury
Hung up overnight
Next morning hear the report
Of the pistols sold and bought
And a long tale of misery
Repeats the same sorry history
Butchers cut them down to size
Spilling out their guts and lies
Cooling breezes and last sighs
For more tears
Oh, I can't stop for trying
Oh, so come to now
And don't delay
There's too many tears to wipe away
Or be betrayed
Oh, so come to now
And don't delay
There're too many tears to wipe away
Or be betrayed
