Bell Bottomed Tear

Lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1: Briana Corrigan] This is the dinner prepared This is the dress that I made This is the child I brought up And this is the woman you laid This is the woman you laid This is the perfume I wore This is the hotel we stayed This is the way that I lay And this is the woman you laid This is the woman you laid [Pre-Chorus 1: Corrigan] We promise ourselves this is no one-night stand Let us draw all the curtains and strike up the band And I'm thrilled by the gentlest touch of your hand We pretend [Chorus 1: Dave Hemingway] There's a tear, there's a tear Not through confusion, through fear Through fear [Verse 2: Corrigan] This is the smile that I wore This is the song that we played This is the way that I lay And this is the woman you laid This is the woman you laid [Pre-Chorus 2: Corrigan] Next morning, our eyes filled with sleepy regret A kiss and goodbye and a long cigarette But the pillow I lay on is cold and it's wet Can't pretend [Chorus 2: Hemingway, Corrigan, Corrigan & Hemingway] It's a tear (It's a tear), it's a tear (It's a tear) Not through confusion, through fear Through fear And knowing at least that love came so near Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed tear [Bridge: Corrigan] Roll out the red carpets and unplug the phone Root out the photos you've already shown 'Cause this is one night you won't sleep alone Just one night [Chorus 3: Hemingway, Corrigan, Corrigan & Hemingway] There's a tear (There's a tear), There's a tear (There's a tear) Not through confusion, through fear Through fear And knowing at least that love came so near (Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh) Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed tear [Outro: Hemingway, Corrigan] There's a tear (There's a tear), There's a tear (There's a tear) Not through confusion, through fear Not through confusion, through fear
