The band falls away, it's just you and your falsetto 'Til the crying of the fiddle brings my breath back again I'll never forget it, the first time I heard you singing your heart right out to mine All the way you bring me to tears
You find me in the dark, your tired hands are so kind We've been out on the town, I've been waiting all night For you to dance with me how no one else can I don't know where you begin and I end All the way you bring me to tears
Tears, all the hurting I swallowed for years Welling up, falling down with me for you dear Tears, like the dew on Kentucky blue bound to appear The way that you bring me to tears
And ever since the babies have been born I've never seen a pair of steadier arms Or a love so gentle as your lullabies Apples and eyes, oh you fill mine The way you bring me to tears
And you say, babe, it's alright I'm not afraid of your rain Oh, the way you pour through me And will always bring me to tears
All the hurting I swallowed for years Welling up, falling down with me for you dear Tears, like the dew on Kentucky blue bound to appear The way that you bring me to tears Oh, the way you bring me to tears
