Bell Bottomed Tear Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1: Briana Corrigan]
This is the dinner prepared
This is the dress that I made
This is the child I brought up
And this is the woman you laid
This is the woman you laid

This is the perfume I wore
This is the hotel we stayed
This is the way that I lay
And this is the woman you laid
This is the woman you laid

[Pre-Chorus 1: Corrigan]
We promise ourselves this is no one-night stand
Let us draw all the curtains and strike up the band
And I'm thrilled by the gentlest touch of your hand
We pretend

[Chorus 1: Dave Hemingway]
There's a tear, there's a tear
Not through confusion, through fear
Through fear

[Verse 2: Corrigan]
This is the smile that I wore
This is the song that we played
This is the way that I lay
And this is the woman you laid
This is the woman you laid

[Pre-Chorus 2: Corrigan]
Next morning, our eyes filled with sleepy regret
A kiss and goodbye and a long cigarette
But the pillow I lay on is cold and it's wet
Can't pretend

[Chorus 2: Hemingway, Corrigan, Corrigan & Hemingway]
It's a tear (It's a tear), it's a tear (It's a tear)
Not through confusion, through fear
Through fear

And knowing at least that love came so near
Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed tear

[Bridge: Corrigan]
Roll out the red carpets and unplug the phone
Root out the photos you've already shown
'Cause this is one night you won't sleep alone
Just one night

[Chorus 3: Hemingway, Corrigan, Corrigan & Hemingway]
There's a tear (There's a tear), There's a tear (There's a tear)
Not through confusion, through fear
Through fear

And knowing at least that love came so near (Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh)
Just adds to the weight of this bell bottomed tear

[Outro: Hemingway, Corrigan]
There's a tear (There's a tear), There's a tear (There's a tear)
Not through confusion, through fear
Not through confusion, through fear
