Alicia Keys: Tears Always Win

These covers may keep me warm at night
But they can't take your place
'Cause they'll never gonna hold me tight

These pillows may let me rest my head
But they can't say goodnight
And tuck me in before I go to bed

Saying oh, baby girl, you better hope
That's what I'm telling myself
But, I'm lying to myself
'Cause I know I don't want nobody else

These lips are missing you
'Cause these lips ain't kissing you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win

These arms are wanting you
'Cause these arms ain't holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win

These candles light up my room at night
But they can't lit the room the way you did
When you walked inside, baby

If these walls could sing
About everything they witnessed
It'd be a sad, sad song
And it'd probably sound something like this

Saying oh, baby girl, you better hope
That's what I'm telling myself
But, I'm lying to myself
'Cause I know I don't want nobody else

These lips are missing you
'Cause these lips ain't kissing you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win

These arms are wanting you
'Cause these arms ain't holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win

Tell me when the hell this loneliness is gonna be over
When everything in this room reminds me of you
Every time I think I'm getting closer
These tears dry me, and out once again I notice

These lips are missing you
'Cause these lips ain't kissing you
I put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win

These arms are wanting you
'Cause these arms ain't holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win

These eyes put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win
These eyes put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win
These eyes put up a fight
But once again, these tears always win
