WHO KNOWS WHAT SECRETS A SINGLE TEAR HIDES,
AS IT GENTLY FALLS FROM ONES TEARFUL EYES.
ARE THEY TEARS OF JOY, OR TEARS OF SORROW,
OR ARE THEY TEARS OF LOVE, SHOT BY CUPIDS ARROW.

ARE THEY TEARS OF HAPPINESS,GREETING SOME LONG LOST FRIEND,
FOR THE SHEER ELATION OF SEEING THEM ONCE AGAIN.
OR ARE THEY TEARS OF FEELINGS OF A TRUE LOVE SO DEEP,
UNCONTROLLED BY A HAPPY HEART THAT MAKES YOU BOTH LAUGH AND WEEP.

ARE THEY TEARS OF AFFECTION,THAT ONLY TRUE LOVERS CAN FIND,
AS THEY BOTH EMBRACE EACH OTHER, WITH PEACE OF MIND.
OR TEARS OF FOND MEMORIES, THAT SLOWLY ROLL DOWN ONES FACE,
AS YOU CRY AND YOU SMILE, AS YOU THINK OF A HAPPIER TIME OR PLACE.

OR TEARS OF COMFORT, AS YOU HEAR A FAVORITE OLD TUNE.
AS YOU THINK OF YOUR YOUTH THAT PASSED BY YOU, ALL TO SOON.
