Countin' My Teardrops lyrics

Intro

(I'll keep countin' teardrops 'til you back again)

Verse 1

They say a little tear can hurt an awful lot

But it'll break your heart when it's 'coz by someone who's forgot

They say a little tear won't ever walk away

'Til someone who's gotta stay home comes home to stay

Verse 2

I'm countin' my teardrops as I sit alone and cry

Each tear reminds me that you said goodbye

I'm countin' my teardrops as they fall one by one

And I'll keep countin' teardrops 'til you back again

Verse 3

Things aren't right my world is at an end

And my dreams have gone to pieces seems I just can't win

Since you've been gone I don't know what I'll do

'Coz my dream world's built around dreams that'll never come true

Verse 4

I'm countin' my teardrops as they fall one by one

Each tear reminds me that you said goodbye

I'm countin' my teardrops as I sit alone and cry

Now I'll keep countin' teardrops 'til you back again
