 Oh, it came as a surprise

That you didn't see

The hurt within my eyes

And deep inside of me

And well, I know that you can't cry in space

'Cause there's no gravity

When I was young I thought you couldn't then be sad

But now I see...

That when the tears don't fall

Baby you can't see on the inside I'm dying

And underneath it all honey, you don't know

I'm really crying

Oh, why can't you see just what you're doing to me

And I'm hurt the most when the tears don't fall

Well some people think that there's a reason for everything

Why we're good and why we're bad, why we break and why we mend

But I don't think even rhyme and reason can explain

Why when we just wanna break down, we stand dry-eyed and risk everything

So that when the tears don't fall

Baby you can't see on the inside I'm dying

And underneath it all honey, you don't know

I'm really crying

Oh, why can't you see just what you're doing to me

And I'm hurt the most when the tears don't fall

I think that we waste too much too much time

Just holding it all inside

And I wish you could see

Those tears in my mind

Even if they're not ever

In my eyes

Oh, when the tears don't fall

Baby you can't see on the inside I'm dying

And underneath it all honey, you don't know

I'm really crying

Oh, why can't you see just what you're doing to me

And I'm hurt the most...

When the tears don't fall

Baby you can't see on the inside I'm dying

And underneath it all honey, you don't know

I'm really crying

Oh, why can't you see just what you're doing to me

And I'm hurt the most when the tears don't fall.
