"Tears Are Falling" is a song by the American hard rock band Kiss from their 1985 album Asylum.

Written and sung by vocalist/guitarist Paul Stanley, the song enjoyed minor success as a single when released in the United States and the United Kingdom.

A video to promote the single was filmed in London in September of 1985, and was directed by David Mallet. Despite its poor-looking production, it was heavily played on MTV's "Dial MTV" phone video-request show for several months, until a new ruling stated that the requested videos had to be only a few weeks old to qualify.

The song was also featured on Kiss' 1988 compilation, Smashes, Thrashes & Hits.

"Tears Are Falling" was one of the few songs since the 1970s to have been solely written by Paul Stanley, and was his last until "Loving You Without You Now" on his 2006 solo album Live to Win.
