Nickolas Ashford - Tears Dry On Their Own lyrics

[Produced by Salaam Remi] [Verse 1] All I can ever be to you Is a darkness that we knew And this regret I've got accustomed to Once it was so right When we were at our height Waiting for you in the hotel at night I knew I hadn't met my match But every moment we could snatch I don't know why I got so attached It's my responsibility And you don't owe nothing to me But to walk away I have no capacity [Chorus] He walks away The sun goes down He takes the day but I'm grown And in your way, in this blue shade My tears dry on their own [Verse 2] I don't understand Why do I stress the man When there's so many bigger things at hand We could a never had it all We had to hit a wall So this is inevitable withdrawal Even if I stop wanting you A perspective pushes through I'll be some next man's other woman soon I can not play myself again I should just be my own best friend Not f** myself in the head with stupid men [Chorus] He walks away The sun goes down He takes the day but I'm grown And in your way, in this blue shade My tears dry on their own [Bridge] So we are history Your shadow covers me The sky above ablaze That only lovers see [Chorus] He walks away The sun goes down He takes the day but I'm grown And in your way, in this blue shade My tears dry on their own [Verse 3] I wish I could say no regrets And no emotional debts Cause as we kiss goodbye the sun sets So we are history The shadow covers me The sky above ablaze that only lovers see [Chorus] He walks away The sun goes down He takes the day but I'm grown And in your way, in this blue shade My tears dry on their own He walks away The sun goes down He takes the day but I'm grown And in your way, in this blue shade My tears dry on their own He walks away The sun goes down He takes the day but I'm grown And in your way, in this blue shade My tears dry on their own
