Nate Marshall & the Family Band - All I Have (Is Tears) Lyrics

I used to have faith
I used to have prayer
Once I stood proudly
But I believed life was fair
I courted death's icy hand
Without the shadow of fear
But all I have is tears

I used to have work
I used to get paid
Once I believed
That I had it made
I put down the bottle for you
Sober twenty-two years
Now all I have is tears

It was a mild August day
When fate took you away
An accident in the green field so fair
And I rushed to pry you loose
But your cold muscles would not move
I lost everything when I found you there
Oh, I lost everything when I found you there

I used to have sleep
Eight hours every night
Once I had hips
I held so tight
I used to have you
But now your soul's disappeared
And all I have, there's nothing left
All I have is tears
