Special Editions: Mr. Henaside

Every drop, a string

I won’t let you cry tonight, I’ll hold the tears you hide. Give me every drop of pain, I’ll turn them into strings tonight. I’ll place them on my guitar, I’ll let the silence sing. Every broken piece you lost Will become a beautiful thing.

Every drop, a string, Every ache, a song. Every wound you carried Won’t be hurting for too long.

So don’t you cry, Don’t you cry tonight. I’ll play you through the darkest night, Till the ocean turns to light. Don’t you cry, Just stay close to me. I’ll play your tears into the sea, Till hope comes back endlessly.

When the night calls out the ocean, And the waves begin to rise, I’ll play the notes you left behind Until the darkness says goodbye. The moon will learn your melody, The stars will know your name. And every shadow you once held Will disappear like rain.

Every drop, a string, Every ache, a song. Every dream you buried deep Was waiting all along.

So don’t you cry, Don’t you cry tonight. I’ll play you through the darkest night, Till the ocean turns to light. Don’t you cry, Just stay close to me. I’ll play your tears into the sea, Till hope comes back endlessly.

And from the water, A voice breaks through... Hope finds a voice, And it sounds like you. I’ll keep playing, Until the ocean learns How to shine again.
