| I Hear Each Tear Fall |
| On Her Face |
| My mom doesn't know I'm watching her, |
| but I'm watching her just the same. |
| And I hear each tear fall on her face |
| at the mention of my name. |
| She says it sounds like music to her ears |
| that can be heard over a crowd. |
| Oh, I hear each tear fall on her face |
| when my name is said aloud. |
| I watch her stumble through each day |
| As she wishes that day would end. |
| And I hear each tear fall from her face |
| as she talks of me to her friends. |
| But there are few who truly understand. |
| Oh, this I've heard her proclaim. |
| And I hear each tear fall on her face. |
| Will my Mom ever be the same? |
| I know that her smiles light up a sky. |
| But I don't see that smile today. |
| Oh, but I hear each tear fall on her face. |
| Her blue skies have turned to gray. |
| Oh, I send to her my warmest hug |
| with the rays of the morning sun. |
| Then, I won't hear a tear fall on her face. |
| For I shall erase them one by one. |
| Yes, my Mom doesn't know I'm watching her. |
| But I'm watching her just the same. |
| And if I hear a tear fall on her face |
| I'll just softly whisper her name. |
