Lynn Morris - Shape of a Tear lyrics
She turned forty years old just this morning, And the mirror showed a trace of her mother, But she never allowed herself to worry out loud, Kissed her husband as he went off to work, And he never let on for her birthday, Pretended like it slipped his mind, Oh but when he rode home in the evening, He had roses and presents so fine. He lit the candles before her, He said “Go on, make your wish.” As usual, she made no wishes. She was thankful for moments like this. And twenty years after their wedding, He said you still look the same, As she’d liken him to a warm winter quilt to keep out the cold wind and rain. Chorus: And he waltzed her around the kitchen, Hummed a melody into her ear, And the love she always felt for him, Appeared in the shape of a tear. They turned out the lights in the kitchen, Climbed the stairs like they did every night, Still the mirror showed a trace of her mother, Ah but now even that seemed alright. And she still trembles when he kisses her, And holds her so close by his side, Their love is as pure as the morning, And as sure as the passing of time. Tag: He waltzed her around the kitchen, Hummed a melody into her hear, And the love she always felt for him, Appeared in the shape of a tear. |
