People assumed that when I let you go I’d cry
Then lock myself away behind closed doors
Then, after a while I’d need the sun, I’d need some hope and recreation, for my thoughts
And anyone who ever said that I was weak
Would have won
But when I go to sleep alone, I read and turn the lights out
Then when I wake in silence
Oh no, I’m never sorry
I’m all out of tears, but if you wanna cry some let me know
I’m all out of tears, but if you wanna cry some let me know
We can put ‘em in a place, for next time
But the tears will never be mine, no
Some people cry cause their lover has gone
Cause they’ve changed and they just wanna move on
I can say that I was one of those fools
Then decided I had something more to prove
But when I go to sleep alone
I read and turn the lights out
Then when I awake in silence
Oh no, I’m never sorry
I’m all out of tears, but if you wanna cry some let me know
I’m all out of tears, but if you wanna cry some let me know
We can put ‘em in a place, for next time
But the tears will never be mine
To myself, to be ruthless, to be brave
When I found out, tears don’t help
They only make your face wet
So, when I start the day again
I’ll know it’s one for breakfast
I will not search for you today
I’m done, you were my weakness
I’m all out of tears, but if you wanna cry some let me know
Out of tears, but if you wanna cry some let me know
We can put ‘em in a place, for next time
But the tears will never be mine
Yes, I’m all out of tears, but if you wanna cry some let me know
We can put ‘em in a place, for next time
But the tears will never be mine, no
No the tears will never mine
No the tears will never mine

Manchester’s soulful chanteuse, Josephine, has created a self-reflective debut album which illustrates the many different
sides of a fascinating character. Vocally, her prowess recalls ‘the Queen of gospel’, Mahalia Jackson’s distinctive contralto, yet behind the powerful delivery is a husky undercurrent making every replaying seem like a personal performance....more

This is real sad guy music. So vulnerable and raw, but sounds sweet. 3 of these songs really HIT me and are SO beautiful (and I like the album as a whole). Sandy Naorin

I normally only listen to electronic music, but after listening to this album months ago I found it kept calling out to me. Now after purchasing it I can see why. I am totally addicted to its beauty and harmony. Thank you so much for the wax version, as it is the only form of music I collect. kaosskid
