Toto

[Verse 1]
Every time you wake, I can see the smile in your eyes
How long will it take, before I finally realize?
It's time to let you go, and still my heart keeps holding on
And will I ever know
That the thought of loving you was right or wrong?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I never meant to make you cry, or meant to cause you pain
And if I had just one more chance, it wouldn't be the same
No, it wouldn't be the same...

[Chorus]
All the tears that shine
Just the rain that's in your eyes
All the tears that shine
Reflections of your face and mine
All the tears that shine
(Tears that shine...)

[Verse 2]
Every time you sleep, do you ever dream of me?
And am I in too deep? Having you is all I need
And every time you wake, I can almost read your mind
Is it a mistake?
To err is human, to forgive divine

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I look into the pool; ripples form in soft salt water
And all I see is you, and a fool in love
Just a fool still in love...

[Chorus]
All the tears that shine (Tears that shine...)
Just the rain that's in your eyes
All the tears that shine (All the tears that shine...)
Reflections of your face and mine
All the tears that shine
(Shine, shine, shine...)

[Pre-Chorus 3]
I look into your eyes; ripples form in soft salt water
And all I see is you, and a fool in love
Just a fool still in love...

[Chorus]
All the tears that shine (Tears that shine...)
Just the rain that's in your eyes
All the tears that shine (All the tears that shine...)
Reflections of your face and mine
All the tears that shine

[Outro]
(Tears that shine...) (Tears that shine...)
(All the tears that shine...)

Toto is an American rock band formed in 1977 in Van Nuys in Los Angeles, California. The band’s current lineup consists of Joseph Williams (lead vocals), David Paich (keyboards, vocals), Steve Porcaro (keyboards), Steve Lukather (guitars, vocals), Shem von Schroeck (bass), and Shannon Forrest (drums). Toto is known for a musical style that combines elements of pop, rock, soul, funk, progressive rock, hard rock, R&B, blues, and jazz.

David Paich and Jeff Porcaro had played together as session musicians on several albums and decided to form a band. David Hungate, Steve Lukather, Steve Porcaro, and Bobby Kimball were recruited before their first album release. The band enjoyed great commercial success in the late 1970s and 1980s, beginning with the band’s eponymous debut released in 1978. With the release of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Toto IV from 1982, Toto became one of the best-selling music groups of their era. They are best known for the Top 5 hits “Hold the Line”, “Rosanna”, and “Africa”. Several changes to the lineup have been made over the years. Hungate left in 1982 followed by Kimball in 1984 but rejoined the band in 1998 until 2008. Jeff Porcaro died in 1992 of a heart attack. Hungate rejoined Toto as a touring musician and later a band member. In 2008, Lukather announced his departure from the band, and the remaining band members later went their separate ways. In the summer of 2010, Toto reformed and went on a short European tour, with a new lineup, to benefit Mike Porcaro, who had been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and was no longer an active member of the band.

The band has released a total of 17 albums, and have sold over 40 million albums to date. The group was honored with several Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2009.
