When you were a running tear I was a drop of sweat.. that’s hard. He was sweating about forever since it feels like a death sentence to him and she was suffering from the fact that he was hesitant?
“When you were a running tear, I was a drop of sweat.” IMO, the tear was the girl falling hard for him, and the sweat was from him running away. It meant more to her than I did him at the time. But now he longs for it.
I like this interpretation! Way I read it is that she was way more into the emotions of it and wanted to run away with him and go places, but he was too focused on work to run with her at the time
