Lyrics

He brings a tear into my eyes

When I begin, Lord, to realize.

If you don't think that, honey, you'll be lonesome,

You know I'll drown, drown, oh Lord, in my own tears.

I know it's true into his mind

A little rain is bound to fall

But since you been gone honey I'm so blue,

It just keeps rainin', keeps right on rainin' more and more.

I didn't cry just like a child,

My poor tears, Lord, they were runnin' wild.

If you don't think that baby you'll be home soon now

You know I'll drown, drown, oh Lord in my own tears.
