A Taste Of Tears Lyrics - Jeannie C. Riley

From the seed of a lifetime to the harvest years 

A girl knows the bitter and sweet taste of tears 

The first love was a green love it was free and sincere 

It ended in heartbreak and the young taste of tears 

Then came the fool's love of life's wasted years 

Time changes nothing but the taste of your tears 

You pray for a true love and soon he appears 

To share joy and sadness and the sweet taste of tears 

And the sweet taste of tears
