No More
The Jewel and The Falcon Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Heartbreak is like the weather, ravaging my soul
But I know, it moves on
Storms are followed by the most beautiful blue skies
I will keep carrying on
Say god only gives you what you're strong enough to handle
Well I must be pretty god damn strong
The will to survive is acknowledging I am alive
And I will keep traveling on

You see love is a mystery
And I still see it's shining face
There are no more sad songs, just blue skies
No more tears to cry

Mm, mm

Lord knows, you can't lose all of the time
So dry those pretty eyes
Lift that proud face
'Cause I still see a beautiful place
Left for you and I

Love is a mystery
And I still see it's shining face
There are no more sad songs, just blue skies
No more tears to cry

As long as there's a child's laughter
As long as there's a starry starry sky
As long as there's a beating in my chest
There's a willingness to try
As long as I see poetry in ordinary things
You know I will, I will, I will, I will

See love's shining face
There are no more sad songs, just blue skies
Are no more tears, sweetheart

No, no more tears
There are no more tears to cry
