 Progression:
 All of the seasons and all of the days
 All of the reasons why I felt this way
 So long, so long.
 Then lost in that feeling, I looked in your eyes
 I noticed emotion and that you had cried
 For me, I can see.
 What would touch me  deep--er? Tears  that fall from  eyes that  only  cry?
 Would it touch you deep---er  than  tears that fall from eyes  that know why?
 x2
 x2
 A lifetime of questions, tears on your cheek
 I tasted the answers and my body was weak
 For you, the truth.
 What would touch me  deep--er? Tears  that fall from  eyes that  only  cry?
 Would it touch you deep---er  than  tears that fall from eyes  that know why?
