Tears Are Falling
Entwine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I read your mind like an open book.
You've lost your fire in your eyes.
You turn to me with a different look.
And then it's raining, looks like it's raining.

I know tears are falling
I know tears are falling
I know tears are falling

Something is wrong as I hold you near.
Somebody else holds your heart.
You turn to me with your eyes in tears.
And then it's raining, feels like it's raining.

I know tears are falling
I know tears are falling (wo-oh-ow-oh oh-ow-oow)
I know tears are falling (wo-oh-ow-oh oh-ow-oow)

(I saw you cry)

And now it's raining, looks like it's raining.
And now it's raining, feels like it's raining.

I know tears are falling (wo-oh-ow-oh oh-ow-oow)
I know tears are falling (wo-oh-ow-oh oh-ow-oow)
I know tears are falling (Tears are falling)
(These tears they keep on falling down on me)





(These tears they keep on falling down on me)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Entwine's song "Tears Are Falling" depict a situation where the singer can sense something is wrong with their partner. They can read their partner's mind like an open book and can tell that they have lost the fire in their eyes. The partner seems to be looking at the singer with tears in their eyes, and it is raining, both literally and metaphorically. It is as though the rain is a reflection of the tears which are falling from their partner's eyes. The chorus repeats the phrase "I know tears are falling" several times, emphasizing the sadness and sorrow that is present in this situation.


The second verse of the song reveals that the problem is caused by someone else who holds their partner's heart. The partner has turned to the singer with tears in their eyes because they are hurting. Despite the intimacy between them, the partner feels deeply alone and detached from the person they truly love. The repetition of the phrase "I know tears are falling" further emphasizes the singer's empathy towards their partner's pain.


The overall theme of the song is that of heartbreak and the sorrow that comes with it. The lyrics communicate sadness and vulnerability, as well as the feeling of helplessness that comes from not being able to fix the situation. The rain acts as a natural element that mirrors the sorrow in the situation, almost as if the environment is sympathetic to what the singer and their partner are going through.

I actually really enjoy this version. I'm not usually a fan of cover songs, especially Kiss covers because they just don't capture the energy of the original. This is not the case here. Love it.
