LYRICS:
Tears Next Door
Maggie Baugh / Kim Copeland
Daydreaming on the tire swing
Watching the clouds float by
When a truck pulled up to the curb
Ms. Dolly ran outside
Two men in uniform
Sat her down on her porch
I didn’t want to watch but I couldn’t ignore
The tears next door
I was three when they moved in
Their daughter was seventeen
I always looked to her
but she never noticed me
When I watched from my window
as she left for war last Spring
I tried not to stare but I couldn’t ignore
The tears next door
Now I understand / just a little more
What all the fighting and the crying’s for
The red, white and blue
It’s for me and you
Now I sit on the tire swing
And watch the clouds once more
Think about all I’ve learned
From the tears next door
The papers are piled up
And the curtains stay closed
But the flag still flying proud
For one who never came home
Now I understand / just a little more
What all the fighting and the crying’s for
The red, white and blue
It’s for me and you
Now I sit on the tire swing
And watch the clouds once more
But the flags still flying proud
For the one who never came home
