Tear By Tear — текст песни (Lynn Anderson)

(Jerry Lane)

Kiss by kiss I fell in love with you
Beat by beat you stole my heart away
Then lie by lie you broke that heart in two
Tear by tear I`m crying my life away.

Dream by dream my future tumble down
Hurt by hurt I weaken every day
Night after night you don`t come around
Tear by tear I`m crying my life away.

Memory by mem`ry I`ve tried to drive you from my mind
But each tick of the clock says I`m wasting my time
One by one my hopes have disappeared
Hour by lonely hour I know you come to stay.

But wish by wish I keep wanting you here
`Cause tear by tear I`m crying my life away
Tear by tear I`m crying my life away...
