I am a tear, I've been here before I know her perfumed fingers, I know the cold, cold floor You look as if you don't understand me at all When she can't help herself, it's my job to fall Oh I could tell you stories, that you would not believe No, I an not the first, there've been millions of me Every time you leave her, every time you don't talk She fights the weakness in her knees, it's my job to fall Oh, it's my job to help her, through the long and lonely night To lead her into sleep, when she is give out with the fight Her heart's out of control, you always make it crawl But I serve the lover and it's my job to fall Love comes from the heart, but I come from the soul Love always shows it's card, but I wait until you go But tonight her soul cried out for you and I had to back the call Oh you never should have seen me, but it's my job to fall Oh it's my job to help her, through the long and lonely night To lead her into sleep, when she is give out with the fight Her heart's out of control, you always make it crawl But I serve the lover and it's my job to fall I am a tear, I've been here before I know her perfumed fingers I know the cold, cold floor
