Teardrops
Adil & A.K.A. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A pathway of teardrops will show you the way,
If you ever want to come back to me.

I want you to know dear that I cried all night and day.
Since you told me you?d never be free.

I loved you so but I let you go.
Now I?m sending a message to you.

A pathway of teardrops will show you the way,
If you ever want to come back to me

I loved you so but I let you go.
Now I?m sending a message to you.

A pathway of teardrops will show you the way,
If you ever want to come back
If you ever want to come back
If you ever want to come back
If you ever want to come back
If you ever want to come back
If you ever want to come back
If you ever want to come back




If you ever want to come back
If you ever come back baby to me

Been following this channel for about a decade now. Still wondering how Adil doesn’t have million of subscribers and world tours lined up. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@nolangow7215

WoW!!!! Good Job done with the new deep hard voice, but stil the 80's is the best decade in music.

@hils1015

Absolutely my favourite cover. I've been listening to it on repeat since the first time I heard it last year. Tried to listen to the others but I can never listen to the end. Just doesn't have that thing that this one has.
