Lyrics

It brings a tear into my eyes When I begin to realize I've cried so much since you've been gone I guess I'm drowning my own tears I sit and cry just like a child My pouring tears are running wild If you don't think you'll be home soon I guess I'll drown, oh, yes, in my own tears I know it's true, mm, into each life Oh, some rain, rain must pour I'm so blue here without you It keeps raining more and more Why can't you come on home? Oh, yes, so I won't be all alone If you don't think you'll be home soon I guess I'll (drown in my own tears) Oh, don't let me (drown in my own tears) When I'm in trouble, baby (drown in my own tears) Oh, yeah, me, and don't let me (drown in my own tears) I guess I'll drown in my own tears Whoa, mm-mmm
