These Tears Lyrics

[Chorus]
These tears mean I'm lettin' you go
I'm learnin' how to be alone
I'm broken, but give it time
I'm gon' be alright
These tears mean it's settlin' in
That I'm not gon' see you again
'Til one day in another life
But I'm gon be al—, I'm gon' be alright

[Verse 1]
I been missin' you tonight
I'll be missin' you tomorrow
It's the hardest pill to swallow
But I'm startin' to get it down
I try to think of all the times
I thought I wouldn't make it through
But somehow I always do
And I do the same for you

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ooh) It don't mean I'm good with goodbye-bye-bye
(Ah-ooh) But it ain't all that bad when I cry, cry, cry

[Chorus]
'Cause these tears mean I'm lеttin' you go
I'm learnin' how to be alone
I'm brokеn, but give it time
I'm gon' be alright
These tears mean it's settlin' in
That I'm not gon' see you again
'Til one day in another life
But I'm gon be al—, I'm gon' be alright
[Verse 2]
I see you everywhere
On the sidewalks of my dreams
Like a distant melody
I hear you callin' and callin' to me
And I love you, but I leave you
In the past, baby, because I need to
To not go insane
I know I love you the same

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ooh) It don't mean I'm good with goodbye-bye-bye
(It don't mean I'm good with goodbye)
(Ah-ooh) But it ain't all that bad when I cry, cry, cry

[Chorus]
These tears mean I'm lettin' you go (These tears mean)
I'm learnin' how to be alone (Oh)
I'm broken, but give it time
I'm gon' be alright
These tears mean it's settlin' in
That I'm not gon' see you again
'Til one day in another life
But I'm gon be al—, I'm gon' be alright

[Outro]
Woah-oh, woah-oh
Woah-oh, I'm gon be al—, I'm gon' be alright
Woah-oh, woah-oh
Woah-oh, I'm gon be al—, I'm gon' be alright

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Answer

Letting go…is hard work. I actually thrive with most kinds of hard work. Tell me how many miles to run, I’ll do it. Tell me how many songs I have to write to chase excellence, I’ll crush it. Hard work and achievement have always been my comfort zone. But letting go isn’t something you can achieve, crush, or master. It’s more of a slow burn, an acceptance, a daily release in small doses. If you are letting something or someone go at the moment, I feel you, I’m with you, I wrote this song for you.
