Teary Eyes is the 3rd track off Katy Perry’s 5th Studio Album Smile.
Here she’s talking about moving on and continues to live your life even though you’re going through something painful or that still makes you cry, one day all the pain will be over and your “eyes will dry”
Katy said this is her fav...
[Verse 1]
Have you ever lost, lost the light in your life?
Have you ever left, left yourself behind?
Have you ever lied and just replied "I'm fine"?
'Cause I can see you've lost, lost the light in your life
[Pre-Chorus]
Wanna run like your mascara
Wine-stained lips talkin' to the mirror
If the sun comes up, don't even care at all
[Chorus]
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
Promise one day, baby, they're gonna dry
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
[Verse 2]
If love has left you with, with a question mark
If trust has left you fallin' in nobody's arms
[Pre-Chorus]
If you wanna hide like your emotions
Heart can't break, it's already broken
If the sun comes up, don't even care at all
[Chorus]
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
Promise one day, baby, they're gonna dry
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
[Bridge]
Wanna run like your mascara
Wine-stained lips talkin' to the mirror
If the sun comes up, don't even care at all
[Chorus]
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes (Oh)
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
Promise one day, baby, they're gonna dry
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes
[Post-Chorus]
Keep on dancin' (Oh, oh)
Keep on dancin' (Oh)
Keep on dancin' (Oh)
Just keep on dancin' with those teary eyes

It’s really about just dancing through your tears, and I’m like, “Wow, that really resonates – that slaps! That hits hard for me right now.”
