Till All Her Tears Are Dry

Writers：chely wright/jim rushing

I sat bored at my piano

When he walked into the bar

When he nodded from his table

I said i know just how things are

Cause the only time i see you

Is when you've made your lady cry

And you always say you'll only stay

Till all her tears are dry

Now for months i've watched you wrestle

With that other side of you

You're scared one day you'll lose your temper

Yes and then you'll lose her too

Oh they say that love is brutal

And for years she's paid the price

It might be too late you best not wait

Till all her tears are dry

Chorus

You better run to her and fall on your knees

Swear that you'll be the man

She's wanted you to be

Then by the grace of god

She'll let you lay there by her side

And hold her gently

Till all her tears are dry

(repeat chorus)

Hold her gently

Till all her tears are dry
