In Tears

Some men keep their women in diamonds and pearls

Others keep the ladies with soft pretty words

But baby you do something, you been doin' for years

I marvel at the way you just keep me in tears

In tears, you just keep on breakin' my heart

In tears, I never know when they're about to start

Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear

Why I love you and let you keep me in tears

People say I'm lucky to be loved by you

And I wouldn't deny it, but it's only half true

The price that I pay for the love that I need

Is knowing too soon just right where I'll be

In tears, you just keep on breakin' my heart

In tears, I never know when they're about to start

Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear

Why I love you and let you keep me in tears

Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear
