When will your tears fall?
Disclaimer: I don't own diddily, except a broken heart and a poet's lips.
I wrote this last night after my family watched 'Retribution'.When Archie got shot, I started crying. My littler sister came and joined me when Horatio found out he was shot. From then on, me and my two little sisters were bawling the rest of the night. We didn't stop til we fell asleep.
And I realized that Hornblower doesn't cry. He didn't cry when Clayton died, and not a tear was shed for Archie.
Well, this is for all those who shed the tears for him.
You look out o'er the ocean deep
Where many a good man now does sleep,
But that's all the salty water you ever know
Because your eyes refuse to show.
And you were there by Clayton's side
After he dueled for you, and when he died.
But even then you did not cry
Though you felt the loss inside.
When, when, will your tears fall?
Or do you have them not at all?
Many a friend has passed away
But still your eyes stay dry.
When Archie, whom you loved the most,
Gave his life and honor to save your post,
You did not cry, you would not weep
When dearest Kennedy fell asleep.
When, when, will your tears fall?
Or do you have them not at all?
Many a friend has passed away
But still your eyes stay dry.
