The coal of your eyes, the train of your lips 

The sailors who chime every second you tick 

The rainbow melts into a pool of iron gray 

And I’ll just shed tears all over the place 



The staggar in your daggar, the fat of your land 

The pistol you forged with the crux of your hand 

The all night watchman has to wait another day 

And I’ll just shed tears all over the place 



Over, over 

Can't help it I'm falling over 

Boxing my knuckles on a bell 



Over, Over 

Don't tell me it's almost over 

It's kicking and screaming and you'll have to drag it to hell 



The stutter in your butter, the cream in your veins 

The pigeons you knock over with each toss of your grain 

The Wailing Wall could never hold the things you say 

And I’ll just shed tears all over the place 



The bitter in your jitter, the salt in your fear 

The sorceress in your fortress, the fork in your gears 

Blow out the candle and the smoke will take the blame 

And I’ll just shed tears all over the place 

Nothing's gonna take your place!
