Vonda Shepard - 100 Tears Away

go ahead and cry now

just give in to the madness

the only way to feel your joy

is to first feel the sadness



go ahead and sail now

just give in to the ocean

the only way to tame your fear

is to feel her rocky motion



you're a long way from somewhere you call home

there's a place in your heart you're not alone



all of the happiness you seek

all of the joy for which you pray

is closer than you think

it's just 100 tears away



go ahead and listen

just give into the voices

you think you're backed into a corner

but you've got so mahy choices

you can't save all the hungry

the lonely or the dying

sometimes we wanna give up

but fools like us keep trying



you're a long way from some place you feel safe

peace of mine comes from just one place



all of the happiness you seek

all of the joy for which you pray

is closer than you think

is just 100 tears away



whatever it is that'll make you feel good

you can have if you want if you knew that you could

you can have it all baby



you're a long way from somewhere you call home

there's a place in your heart you're not alone



all of the happiness you seek

all of the joy for which you pray

is closer than you think

it's just 100 tears away
