Tongue Tied Teary Eyed Songtext
von Kyf Brewer

Standing here at your garden gate
With my good suit on
Bunch of sorry flowers in a whiskey jar
When the moon hides ′hind the grape vine
I can see you in your bedroom light
But you can't see me standing here in the dark
All alone again
Out on your back porch swing
Came to make amends
Now i can′t say a thing
I'm tongue-tied-teary-eyed
Outside looking in
Tongue-tied-teary
I'd give it all away
To get you back again
Clanging round your yard
Can′t you hear your hounddog wail
Neighbor preacher jones is peeping through the shade


If i say my prayers would you come downstairs
And hug me like you used to do?
C′mon sugar, i wore your favorite after shave
Out on the lawn again
Won't you let me lay
Up in your feather bed
With the breakfast tray?
Tongue-tied-teary-eyed
Outside looking in
Tongue-tied-teary
I′d give it all away
To get you back again
I never meant to hurt you
It's just the way i am
But patience is a virtue, they say
So i′ll just wait for you to come
And let me in
Tongue-tied-teary-eyed, yeah.
