The Tear Of The Year

I never thought I'd see,

You turn your back on me,

And taste another kiss with such delight.

It hurt me so inside,

Oh Lord,

I musta' cried,

The tear of the year,

Last night.

And darlin'

When I heard,

That final, crushing word,

That someone else's arms would hold you tight.,

I wished that I was dead.

Oh Lord,

You konow I shed,

The tear of the year,

Last night.

I built my whole world around you,

By each and every dream.

And now you're slipping,

Through my fingers,

Like the ripples,

In a stream.

Oh!

Oh darlin',

You can say,

Our love has seen it's day.

But I'll forever go on feelin' blue.

I feel the hurt inside,

I felt the night I cried,

The tear of the year,

Over you.

Oh!

The tear,

Of the year,

Oh!

Over you.
