Tears All Over Town by Everything But The Girl Lyrics
[Intro]
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
[Verse 1]
Don't be unkind, for once be untrue
Can't pretend I care for her, only you
Just be on time, spare me your shame
For once don't mention her name
Now I cannot claim angel's wings (No no)
But mention her name and I'll wreck everything
[Chorus]
I saw things not meant for my eyes
I was happy once and then twice
I said things I shouldn't have said
I told tales of days in your bed
In love and war there is nothing sacred
[Verse 2]
Just don't pretend, wherever you go
There are things that only I know
Because I'm sure, when she's there
That you tell a few of the secrets of yours
That I had kept for you
[Chorus]
But I saw things not meant for my eyes
I was happy once and then twice
I said things I shouldn't have said
I told tales of days in your bed
In love and war there is nothing sacred
[Post-Chorus]
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
I saw things not meant for my eyes
I said things I shouldn't have said
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
[Verse 1]
Don't be unkind, for once be untrue
Can't pretend I care for her, only you
Just be on time, spare me your shame
For once don't mention her name
Now I cannot claim angel's wings (No no)
But mention her name and I'll wreck everything
[Chorus]
I saw things not meant for my eyes
I was happy once and then twice
I said things I shouldn't have said
I told tales of days in your bed
In love and war there is nothing sacred
[Verse 2]
Just don't pretend, wherever you go
There are things that only I know
Because I'm sure, when she's there
That you tell a few of the secrets of yours
That I had kept for you
[Chorus]
But I saw things not meant for my eyes
I was happy once and then twice
I said things I shouldn't have said
I told tales of days in your bed
In love and war there is nothing sacred
[Post-Chorus]
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
Tears all over town
I saw things not meant for my eyes
I said things I shouldn't have said
