Dry Your Eyes (Explicit) - The Streets

In one single moment your

Whole life can turn 'round

I stand there for a minute

Starin' straight into the ground

Lookin' to the left slightly

Then lookin' back down

World feels like it's caved in

Proper sorry frown

Please let me show you

Where we could only just be for us

I can change and

I can grow or we could adjust

The wicked thing about us is

We always have trust

We can even have

An open relationship if you must

I look at her she stares

Almost straight back at me

But her eyes glaze over

Like she's lookin' straight through me

Then her eyes must have closed for

What seems an eternity

When they open up

She's lookin' down at her feet

Dry your eyes mate

I know it's hard to take

But her mind has been made up

There's plenty more fish in the sea

Dry your eyes mate

I know you want to make her see

How much this pain hurts

But you've got to walk away now

It's over

So then I move my hand up

From down by my side

It's shakin' my life is crashin'

Before my eyes

Turn the palm of my hand up

To face the skies

Touch the bottom of her chin

And let out a sigh

'Cause I can't imagine my life

Without you and me

There's things I can't imagine doin'

Things I can't imagine seein'

It weren't supposed to be easy surely

Please please I beg you please

She brings her hands up towards

Where my hands rested

She wraps her fingers round mine

With the softness she's blessed with

She peels away my fingers

Looks at me and then gestures

By pushin' my hand away

To my chest from hers

Dry your eyes mate

I know it's hard to take

But her mind has been made up

There's plenty more fish in the sea

Dry your eyes mate

I know you want to make her see

How much this pain hurts

But you've got to walk away now

It's over

And I'm just standin' there

I can't say a word

'Cause everythin's just gone

I've got nothin'

Absolutely nothin'

Tryin' to pull her close

Out of bare desperation

Put my arms around her tryin'

To change what she's sayin'

Pull my head level with hers

So she might engage in

Look into her eyes to

Make her listen again

I'm not gonna f**kin'

Just f**kin' leave it all now

'Cause you said it'd be forever

And that was your vow

And you're gonna let our things

Simply crash and fall down

You're well out of order now

This is well out of town

She pulls away my arms are

Tightly clamped round her waist

Gently pushes me back

And she looks at me straight

Turns around so she's now

Got her back to my face

Takes one step forward

Looks back and then walks away

Dry your eyes mate

I know it's hard to take

But her mind has been made up

There's plenty more fish in the sea

Dry your eyes mate

I know you want to make her see

How much this pain hurts

But you've got to walk away now

It's over

I know in the past

I've found it hard to say

Tellin' you things

But not tellin' straight

But the more I pull on your hand and say

The more you pull away

Dry your eyes mate

I know it's hard to take

But her mind has been made up

There's plenty more fish in the sea

Dry your eyes mate

I know you want to make her see

How much this pain hurts

But you've got to walk away now
