V1

Are you thinking ‘bout what went wrong?

And lying awake all night?

Or are you wondering why it took so long

To finally end this fight?

Are you drowning in the flow

Or are your eyes clear and dry?

The reflection in my mirror

Is bloodshot red from a good cry

Chorus

The most precious fluid known

When it floods will send you reeling

It’s only one percent water

And the rest is filled with feelings

You can’t turn them off

Until the hurt all disappears

The most expensive lessons learned

Are all paid in tears

V2.

If I could trade these tears for dollars

My account would be overflowing

Sometimes I wish I didn’t

But I guess it’s better knowing

Chorus

The most precious fluid known

When it floods will send you reeling

It’s only one percent water

And the rest is filled with feelings

You can’t turn them off

Until the hurt all disappears

The most expensive lessons learned

Are all paid in tears

Bridge

Wasting all my tears on you

Really didn’t change a thing

I’ve cried myself a river

And it cost me everything

Chorus

The most precious fluid known

When it floods will send you reeling

It’s only one percent water

And the rest is filled with feelings

You can’t turn them off

Until the hurt all disappears

The most expensive lessons learned

Are all paid in tears
