Slow Leaves - Sentimental Teardrops Lyrics

SENTIMENTAL TEARDROPS
Sometimes I want to be sad, sometimes I want to be happy
I just want to feel everything, the cheerful and the sappy
I just want to be loved as everybody should
Sometimes I want to say nothing and still be understood
Sometimes it's hard to be easy, tough to be cool
Time keeps slipping on past me no matter what I do
And if a sentimental teardrop is running down my cheek
I'm holding back a rain cloud that needs to be released
I like to hear the rain fall as I go to sleep
To wash away those old dreams I shouldn't keep
These sentimental teardrops need to fall from time to time
Sometimes I try to be honest, without a doubt
I try to tell the truth sometimes but the opposite comes out
Sometimes I want to make love, I won't deny it
Sometimes I want to talk dirty then feel embarrassed by it
Sometimes I want to freak out, I want to be numb
Sometimes I feel so angry, but not at anyone
And if a sentimental teardrop is running down my cheek
I'm holding back a rain cloud that needs to be released
I like to hear the rain fall, it helps me go to sleep
To wash away those old dreams I shouldn't keep
These sentimental teardrops need to fall from time to time
Sometimes I want to be famous but I don't want to try
I can't help but be lazy, hey maybe that's why
Sometimes I want to be modest, civil and restrained
Sometimes I want to go naked and not feel ashamed
I get so tired of being quiet, I want to yell
Sometimes I want to know how it feels to be somebody else
And if a sentimental teardrop is running down my cheek
I'm holding back a rain cloud that needs to be released
I love to hear the rain fall, it helps me go to sleep
To wash away those old dreams I shouldn't keep
These sentimental teardrops need to fall from time to time
These sentimental teardrops need to fall from time to time
