lyrics

The Sparkle Is Now a Teardrop


Words and Music by Sarah Penney and Richard Melvin Brown SOCAN

VERSE 1

You gave me a ring and I gave you my heart,
Thought we would be together 'til death do us part
We were a match made in Heaven, so happy you and I,
You brought a smile to my face and a sparkle to my eye'

CHORUS

But the sparkle became a teardrop, and my smile became a frown,
You tore my world apart, and turned it upside down
Never thought it would happen to us, never thought our love would die,
but the sparkle I once had is now a teardrop in my eye

VERSE 2

I didn't see this coming, the thought never entered my mind,
all I could see was the love we had, but they say love is blind
when I found your good-bye note, it took me by surprise,
that sparkle I once had was now a teardrop in my eye

CHORUS

The sparkle became a teardrop, and my smile became a frown,
You tore my world apart, and turned it upside down
I never thought it would happen to us, never thought our love would die,
But the sparkle I once had, is now a teardrop in my eye

REPEAT Chorus and tag

TAG

Won't you wipe away these teardrops, and put that sparkle back in my eye
