"Drown In My Own Tears" lyrics

"Drown In My Own Tears"
(originally by Ray Charles)

It brings a tear into my eyes
When I begin to realize
I cried so hard, Lord, since you've been gone
Look like, boy I'm gonna drown, Lord, in my own tears now

But I know only to cry just like a child
Oh, my rolling tears, they are running wild
If you don't think, hey you're gonna be home soon, it's alright
I believe I'm gonna drown, oh hey, in my own tears, in my own tears

Oh, I believe it's true, yeah, into his life
Some rain will surely fall
I'm so blue, every, every day without you now
It keep on raining, keep on raining more and, more and more

Hey, hey, why can't you? You know you oughta come on home
Then I won't, you know me so all alone, alone, yeah
If you don't think, you're gonna be home soon, it's alright
I believe I'm gonna drown in my own tears, drown in my own tears
Drown in my own tears, drown in my own tears
You know I'm gonna drown in my own tears, yeah

Don't it make you feel all right?
Yeah
