Brandi Carlile; Indigo Girls Last Tears Lyrics

these are the last tears i'm gonna cry for you
my cryin's through
i'm moving on
i don't regret and won't forget
a single thing that we went through
but these are the last tears
i'm gonna cry for you

you take things so much easier than i do
and you could live your life without me
if you had to
and you believe that in the end
it all works out right
and i might
if not for you
and if you ask one which one lives just alone for love
i do
but these are the last tears i'm gonna cry for you
my cryin's through
i'm moving on
i don't regret and won't forget
a single thing that we went through
but these are the last tears
i'm gonna cry for you

there was a time when all signs pointed to the warm south
the planets all lined up and built a new house
and everything we talked about
felt like a prophecy
and when you looked at me
they all came true
and if you asked which one wants to go the distance
i do
but these are the last tears i'm gonna cry for you
my cryin's through
i'm moving on
i don't regret and won't forget
a single thing that we went through
but these are the last tears
i'm gonna cry for you
i'm gonna rack my mind one last time
until i cannot think
i'm gonna dip into your memory
and take a good stiff drink
and when i'm drunk on the last drop of sadness
about how we went wrong
i'm gonna play this song
make some coffee black and strong
give thanks for healing time
finally make up my mind
but these are the last tears i'm gonna cry for you
baby my cryin's through
i'm moving on
i don't regret and won't forget
a single thing that we went through
but these are the last tears
i'm gonna cry for you
these are the last tears
i'm gonna cry for you
