With This Tear
With this tear
I thee want
I long 4 u 2 talk 2 me like u did
That night in the restaurant
U spoke of love so openly
And again and again u promised me
That u’d never leave
But now u’re gone
With this voice
I thee call
Sometimes I catch myself
Calling your name
When u’re not there at all
Please tell me what I did wrong
Why must I hear your voice inside my head
All day and all night long
It’s not fair
(Bridge) (Ad-libs)
With these arms
I held u
When u told me u were dying
I had less courage it’s true
And u wrote every day
Writing ’bout the things
That we could do
When your pain went away
But all that went away was u
With this tear
I thee want
I long 4 u 2 talk 2 me like u did
That night in the restaurant
With this tear
I thee want
I thee want
I thee want
I thee want
With this tear
I thee want
I long 4 u 2 talk 2 me like u did
That night in the restaurant
U spoke of love so openly
And again and again u promised me
That u’d never leave
But now you’re gone
With this tear

(Prince)
