How Many Tears lyrics

I see myself when I look in your eyes
And all of the sadness you`re keeping inside
Oh baby can`t you see
If anyone knows, if anyone knows it`s me

So many years I tried to pretend
That I would live on in silence my friend
Then something changed in me
Funny how love, it`s funny how love sets you free

Don`t run away
From my love it could save you
If only you`ll stay

How many tears will you cry in the dark
`Till you let me close to your heart
Doesn`t the loneliness tear you apart
Let me get close to your heart

`What can I do?` I hear you say
Feels like I`m frozen or driftin` away
Can my love unlock the door?
And you won`t be lonely, you won`t be lonely no more

Hold me, hold me tight and don`t let go
There`s just one thing that you got to know
And that is love it holds the key, baby
So why don`t take it, why don`t you take it from me

Don`t run away
From my love it could save you
If only you`ll stay

How many tears will you cry in the dark
`Till you let me close to your heart
Doesn`t the loneliness tear you apart
Let me get close to your heart

How many tears will you cry in the dark
`Till you let me close to your heart
Doesn`t the loneliness tear you apart
Let me get close to your heart

Oh you just can`t keep me away
Not another day, baby
You gotta open up and let me in
Don`t try to run away `coz I got so much to say
I could love you if you`d let me get close to your heart

How many tears will you cry in the dark
`Till you let me close to your heart
Doesn`t the loneliness tear you apart
Let me get close to your heart
