Lyrics The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Teardrops in my Eyes

Those heartaches now are on their way

What makes you want to be that way

You cheated on me and you lied

You’ve put teardrops in my eyes.

I found out what they say is true

I hope someday that you’ll be blue

And then you’ll know, dear, why I try

With these teardrops in my eyes.

The news is out all over town

That you’ve been seen out runnin’ round

I turned my head and gossip flies

’Cause it puts teardrops in my eyes.

I found out what they say is true

I hope someday that you’ll be blue

And then you’ll know, dear, why I try

With these teardrops in my eyes.

I never thought you’d let me down

But now at last I understand

You’ve wrecked my life and broke our vow

And now you’ll have to pay for it somehow.

I found out what they say is true

I hope someday that you’ll be blue

And then you’ll know, dear, why I try

With these teardrops in my eyes

With these teardrops in my eyes.
