Teardrop Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath
[Chorus]
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
[Verse 2]
Night, night of matter
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
[Chorus]
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my
[Verse 3]
Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
[Chorus]
Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath
[Outro]
You're stumbling in the dark
You're stumbling in the dark

3D on Teardrop [ChannelV TV – June 1998]:
It’s a moment of light relief from some of the other moments of the album really. It was quite a simple track musically to create and we weren’t sure what to do with it.
