"The Tears That I Cry"
(John Anderson / Paul Kennerley)

Darling I love you, you know that I do
And I never will want nobody but you
And now that you've left me and broken my heart
I tortures my soul and it tears me apart

And the tears that I cry are like the rain falling down
When I reach for you and honey you're not around
I can't forget you and as hard as I try
I'm slowly sinkin' in the tears that I cry

My friends try to help me but don't understand
The troubling sigh of a heart broken man
It's a measure of sorrow and it's a feel of pain
Knowing that I will never see you again

And the tears that I cry are like the rain falling down
When I reach for you and honey you're not around
I can't forget you and as hard as I try
I'm slowly sinkin' in the tears that I cry
