Drown in My Own Tears
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 in my own tears

I sit and cry,
Just like a child
My pouring tears
Are runnin' 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,
Into each life
Oh, some rain, rain must pour

I'm so blue
Here without you
It keeps raining
More and more

Why don'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, baby, don't let me
(drown in my own tears)
I guess I'll drown in my own tears
Oh, mmmmm.
