Tears rushing down my face Can't erase The scorch of your displeasure. In an instant, all is lost - Such great cost. Everything I treasure Vanishes. And so it seems I just dreamed I meant something to you. Might have been's a sad refrain And I rain Tears which have no value. |

Very sad indeed. However, I liked the way it was presented, with the breaks all in the right place yet still connected. Very nice form, but again a very sad statement. |

Suthern...with all your thoughts, Toe's and mine, being laid bare...shares in Kleenex have risen on the FTSE by 150%... For each tear you cry a sparkle reaches your eyes!

All tears have value dear, though they make your makeup smear. Well done, though distressingly sad! At the one who spurned you, oh I'm mad! ------------------ Where did I go wrong, I never needed this before, I need a woman, to help me feel. -Live- |

Suthern, don't feel that way. I'm not displeased with ya. Oh, I know you always take Toe's side against me and ridicule me, attack me and laugh at me but I know it's only because you have been under his evil influence for too long. So be happy. Ah loves ya, man! (now where's that Bud Light?) |
