Looking Through a Tear - Aretha Franklin

When love leaves & breaks your heart

Your dreams simply fall apart

You see a world sad & blue

So unfamiliar to you

You look for lips that you once kissed

But they’re lost in mist

Oh oh oh oh it’s funny

How nothing seems quite so clear

When you’re looking through a tear

The face in the crowd

You see is her face

All seems to fade in the shade of her glory

And you wait for the chance

To catch another glance

But she really wasn’t there

Her words linger in your ear

Goodbye is all that you can hear

It couldn’t happen to you

But all at once love is through

It’s funny

How nothing seems clear

When you’re looking through a tear
