I miss my mama, miss my mother
Miss my mother at night
Ooh, she gave me life, ah, ah
I miss my brother, miss my brother
Miss my brother all day
Ooh, we used to pray
Ooh, I miss my lover, miss my lover
Miss my lover at night
Ooh, to hold me tight
Ooh, I'm on the freeway, on the freeway
On the freeway I cry
Because I can, oh
Tears can be so good for those who dive in them
Let them run on my cheeks, ah
One more time
Tears are so soft when you dive in them
Oh, let them sail, ah
I miss my friends, I miss my friends
I miss my friends and the tenderness
Ooh, they give me cold hard looks, now
I miss my joy, I miss my joy
I miss my joy and my head
Look at my face, what is happening now?
Look at my face, what's happening now?
Oh, tears can be so good for those who dive in them
Oh, let them roll, girl, yeah
Love is like this embrace when you can
'Cause at night
When you're all alone, you think about it one more time
Oh, let's embrace them when we can
Oh, let's hold onto them when we can
Oh, sing my heart out
Oh, tears can be so good, let me pray
Oh, let me pray for my salvation, baby
Now water, more water
I don't want more money
More water, more, hmm
Oh water, hmm, more water
I don't want your money
Water, ah, is what I'm looking for
Tears can be so good for you, baby
Diving in, and forget it all
Tears can be so good
Tears can be so sweet
Let them roll on your face, girl
Let them flow down your face, girl
Oh, diamonds on your face forever
