How Many Teardrops Will It Take
Hank Thompson, Billy Gray
[Verse 1]
How many teardrops have fallen over you
How many lovers couldn't last
You loved me for this moment and perhaps a day or two
Then suddenly I'll fade into your past
[Verse 2]
I'm not in the mood for crying but perhaps I should prepare
My tears are standing by just in case I learn to care
To cure a heart that's broken if I make the same mistake
Tell me how many teardrops will it take
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I know their feeling each one who held you close
There'll come a time I know you'll find someonе you'll love the most
And then if you should losе him and amends you try to make
Tell me how many teardrops will it take
[Outro]
How many teardrops will it take
How many teardrops will it take
