Salt of the Fallen Tear
© Stan Loh April 28, 2006

Verse 1
Salt of the fallen tear,
Traces of bitterness,
Laden with emptiness,
Mixed with darkened fear.

Verse 2
Shards of a broken mind,
Pieces so sharp they cut,
Wounded and guessing what’s,
Crawling right behind.

Chorus
It’s no good to fight it,
You don’t know how to win,
No amount of blues and beer,
Can sweeten the salt of the fallen tear

Bridge
Alone you stand no chance,
Someone could hold your hand,
She’ll bring you back to land,
Where you’ll find romance.
She’ll wipe away your tears,
In her you’ll find no fault,
Shake away the bitter salt,
She’ll be there.

Chorus
It’s no good to fight it,
You don’t know how to win,
No amount of blues and beer,
Can sweeten the salt of the fallen tear
Instrumental

Verse 3
Forget your crazy past,
Tear down the fractured wall,
Open a brand new hall,
To a great contrast.

Chorus 2
She’s so good, she’s got it,
She just knows how to win,
Together you will hear,
The sweet bells of those joyous tears.

Outro
Together you will hear,
The sweet bells of those joyous tears.
