Two Tears - Eliza Carthy

Marianne Faithfull sings a song about boy

Who’s like the rain

And look that’s you

When you first appeared

You brought be flowers everyday

Now where are you?

No one’s saying that you should be here

But if you were the forcast would be clear

As the rain came down

Not outside but inside

And exactly two tears I did cry

One from each eye

This faithless girl has loved a dozen faithless souls

Now I am low and you you’re new

When you were first around

I told you all about good friends

And all and true (?)

You said you wished you had a story so profound

But how could you boy you wouldn’t stick around

How the rain came down

When I turned and you weren’t by my side

Then exactly two tears I did cry

Exactly two tears I cried

Exactly two tears

See you in the mirror you are laughing at your looks

They take up your time

Right honey you

Life sings funny songs

And they’ll caress your golden head

And I did too

You can kiss me for the fool that I am still

Ohhh where are you it feels as though you will

How the rain came down

Not outside but inside

And then exactly two tears I did cry

How the rain came down

Not outside but inside

And then exactly two tears I did cry

One from each eye

One for each lie

One for each side

Exactly two tears
