All of the seasons and all of the days.
All of the reasons why I felt this way.

So long, so long.

[Riff 1] x2 /w lyrics:

Then lost in that feeling, I looked in your eyes.
I noticed emotion and that you had cried.

[Riff 2] and [Riff 3] x1 /w lyrics:

For me, I can see.

What would touch me deeper? Tears that fall from eyes that only cry?

Would it touch you deeper than tears that fall from eyes that know why?

A lifetime of questions, tears on your cheek.

What would touch me deeper? Tears that fall from eyes that only cry?

i'm not really a rush fan, but i heard the album 2112 is about a guy living in a dystopian society in the far future

i think of Tears as more of a break up song than as a love song...the girl is breaking up with the guy because he isnt affectionate enough for her and not sensitive enough and he thinks that she doesnt think of him as someone to lean on in time of need "what would touch me deeper/tears that fall from from eyes that only cry/would it touch you deeper/than tears that fall from eyes/that know why"...i dunno i could be way off on this one

wow....i cant believe nobody posted anything about this song. I love it, I love the beat, the sound, basically everything about it. I think this song is about love, which rare for Rush to sing about. I think it's about that unexplainable feeling you get when you are with that person. Tears, happy ones at least I think, to be in love...for knoing and understanding the meaning of true love. I don't know I could be wrong about the true meaning of this song but that is just my opinion of what it means to me. True love is something that just can't be explained, its just a feelings...an unbelievable feeling that you get...
