ONE TEAR DOWN (ONE MILLION TO GO)
words & music by
Tim Ponzek © 1995

I can’t deny how much I hurt
Your smile is bittersweet; it’s what I deserve
I hid my feelings too long; now they’re starting to show
See, I’ve got ONE TEAR DOWN, ONE MILLION TO GO

The fire we lit was all ablaze
Till it consumed us both; and nothing was saved
You drenched the fire within you with the tears you let flow
Me, I’ve got ONE TEAR DOWN, ONE MILLION TO GO

All the times you cried all night; I turned into stone
Instead of trying to make it all right; I left you alone

Too late I see the pain I caused
The heart that froze when you left is starting to thaw
The way the sun slowly melts a man made of snow
I’ve got ONE TEAR DOWN, ONE MILLION TO GO
Yes, I’ve got ONE TEAR DOWN, ONE MILLION TO GO
