I Want My Tears Back

I want my tears back!
 ♪
 The treetops, the chimneys, the snow bed stories, winter gray
 Wildflowers, those meadows of heaven, wind in the wheat
 A railroad across waters, the scent of grandfatherly love
 Blue bayous, Decembers, moon through a dragonfly's wings
 Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
 Where's dear Alice knocking on the door?
 Where's the trapdoor that takes me there
 Where the real is shattered by a Mad Marsh Hare?
 Where is the wonder? Where's the awe?
 Where are the sleepless nights I used to live for?
 Before the years take me
 I wish to see the lost in me
 ♪
 I want my tears back
 I want my tears back now!
 ♪
 A ballet on a grove, still growing young all alone
 A rag doll, a best friend, the voice of Mary Costa
