Save Your Tears

You've been there before
When you climbed up the stairs to her door
In your mind, you saw all her bags lying packed on the floor

But save your tears
Oh, save your tears
Save those lonely tears

You went so far down in your sorrow
You thought you could drown when you ran aground
She stepped in and she turned you around

She saved your tears
She saved your tears
Saved your lonely tears

Were moments that you don't forget
The dress she wore the night you met
You shared a joke, a cigarette
A gift you haven't opened yet

There were lonesome blues
You went searching the desert for clues
Now your aim is true
So go and tell everybody the news

Save your tears
Save your tears
Save those lonely tears

There is no trick, no mystery
You trust in fate, and you believe
The answer's there for all to see
That's how it was for you and me

Good times are comin' back
And your train's headed straight down that track
She just called you back
Said that suitcase is already packed

So save those tears
Save all your tears
Save your lonely tears

Hmm
Save your tears
Save all the tears
Save those lonely tears
