Only tears are meant to fall   Only once and that is all   And when you start to lose the fight   And nothing else will make it right      Only hearts are meant to break   And when you make that last mistake   And everything you tried to say   But all the words got in the way      Only God can hear you now   When you make that final vow   Say the words and say them loud   Say the words that make you proud      And when you lose someone you depend upon   Only tears will fall   And when you need a friend I will send you one   Only tears are meant to fall      Only tears are meant to fall   Only once and that is all      Only tears are meant to fall   Only once and that is all      Only tears are meant to fall   Only once and that is all      Only tears are meant to fall   Only once and that is all
