Lyrics Shirley Horn

Shirley Horn

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'll drown in my own tears

I've been crying 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 yeah, 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 home 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, don't let me (drown in my own tears)

I guess I'll drown in my own tears
