Your eyes like rivers flowing
Out to the sea, and just
Just like a waterfall, they hit you suddenly
And you said
Your heart lies at the bottom of the ocean floor
Yeah, it feels like you're drowning now
But I'll swim you to shore
Life has its way of crashing
Just like a wave, and I
Know that the current's strong
And pulls you every day, but I swear
Just wait a while, all the tides will subside
And those diamonds on your cheeks will wash away and dry

When it all falls down
You'll be safe and sound

You've been crying for some time
Let me make all your pain mine
We can put it in rewind and leave it behind
If you just can't find the words
I can steal away your hurt
When it can't get any worse
Yeah, I'll put your tears in reverse

I'll stop the thunderstorm that
Lives in your head, I swear
Will take all of the darkness
And put it to bed, and you ask
What does the future hold
I I never know
But I'll keep chasing rain until we run out of road

When it all falls down
You'll be safe and sound

You've been crying for some time
Let me make all your pain mine
We can put it in rewind
And leave it behind
If you just can't find the words
I can steal away your hurt
When it can't get any worse
Yeah, I'll put your tears in reverse

Every tear that's on the floor
Will be stars up in the sky
'Cause I know you got it in you
I know you'll get it right
I know it's never easy
To act like you're afloat
When part of you is thinking
Yeah, I've been there, and I've been scared
When nights get longer, it ain't fair
But you'll swim through, you always do
And I'll be watching as you bloom

You've been crying for some time
Let me make all your pain mine
We can put it in rewind and leave it behind
If you just can't find the words
I can steal away your hurt
When it can't get any worse
Yeah, I'll put your tears in reverse

Oh, yeah
Tears in reverse
Oh
Tears in reverse
