Teardrop
Massive Attack Lyrics
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
Night, night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my
Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
You're stumbling in the dark
You're stumbling in the dark

Of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
You're stumbling in the dark
You're stumbling in the dark

Oh yes Jennifer!
I have to agree with you wholeheartedly.
The love of my life, Emilie, and I lost
our beautiful girl Marguerite at age 16 weeks in the womb.
She never got to experience the outside world, or life as we know it❤️.
To our gorgeous unborn miracle Margot.
We will always carry you in our hearts! Today, tomorrow, and way into our future!
much love from Emilie and Nick ❤️❤️

"Teardrop"
[Verse 1]
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Feathers on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Feathers on my breath
[Chorus]
Teardrop on the fire
Feathers on my breath
[Verse 2]
Night, night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Feathers on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Feathers on my breath
[Chorus]
Teardrop on the fire
Feathers on my...
[Verse 3]
Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Feathers on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Of a confession
Feathers on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Feathers on my breath
[Chorus]
Teardrop on the fire
Feathers on my breath
[Outro]
You're stumbling in the dark
You're stumbling in the dark
