Walter Egan: "Vergin' on Tears" Lyrics

by Walter Egan

It's been a year too long 

It's been a day too short

Now how can I be strong

I'm getting torn apart

It's getting tough to take it

Making a wreck of me

It's getting rough to make it

One break could set me free

Now don't you see one break is all I need 

And I believe one break could set me free

Sometimes I wake up dreaming before it disappears

Sometimes I wake up screaming 

Near vergin' on tears

Now should I walk the line

Or should I jump the fence

Is this the reign of reason

Or irrelevance

With each passing day

I grow a little numb

I was an inch away

The taste was on my tongue

With every brand new day I grow a little numb

I was an inch away the taste was on my tongue

Chorus
