Drown in My Own Tears Songtext
von Dinah Washington

It brings a tear into my eyes
When I begin to realize
I′ve cried so much
Since you've been gone
I′ve almost drowned, oh, in my own tears

I sit and cry just like a child
My pouring tears, Lord, keep on runnin' wild
If you don't think
You′ll be home soon
I guess I′ll drown (oh, yes, I'll drown)
In my own tears (in my own tears)


I know it′s true
Into each life
Oh, some rain must pour
Don't you know, I′m so blue (do-do-do)
Oh, without you (do-do-do)
It just keeps raining more
More, more and more

Why can't you come on 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)
Please don′t let me (drown in my own tears)
When I'm in trouble (drown in my own tears)
Take me back to Stoneville please, yeah, yeah (drown in my own tears)
I guess I′ll drown, yeah
Drown, drown in my own tears
Oh, yeah
