[Verse 1]
I'll set my teardrops to music
I'll write a sad sad song
So that those who are broken hearted
Can sing along

[Verse 2]
I'll set my teardrops to music
I want the whole world to hear
The lyrics of love's slowly language
When life's dearest dreams disappear

[Verse 3]
The verse will reveal a love that was real
Teardrops of joy they will be
But in the refrain tears of pain
Will etch out my melody

[Verse 4]
Each rhyme will relate to a romance
I held but just couldn't hold
When I set my teardrops to music
To be strung on the strings of my soul

[Verse 3]
The verse will reveal a love that was real
Teardrops of joy they will be
But in the refrain tears of pain
Will etch out my melody
[Verse 4]
Each rhyme will relate to a romance
I held but just couldn't hold
When I set my teardrops to music
To be strung on the strings of my soul
When I set my teardrops to music
To be strung on the strings of my soul
