Only So Many Tears

Beth Nielsen Chapman

There are only so many tears you can cry,
Till your heart stops breaking.
Only so many doors you can try,
Till you finally find your way.
Out of the dark, into the light,
No, the clouds won't always be grey.
The sun reappears in the blink of an eye,
And there's only so many tears you can cry.

There are only so many reasons to give up,
You're not even close.
You got to believe in the power of love,
That's all anyone knows.
And what makes you strong comes from inside,
And as far as weather and woes.
Buckets of rain can fall from the sky,
But there's only so many tears you can cry.

Get on with it, get on with life,
Forget about who's wrong or right.
Come out and dance with me tonight,
And we'll laugh, laugh, laugh those tears away.
