One Teardrop At A Time

Wanda Jackson · Sings Country Songs [1965]

(Eddie Miller - Betty West)



(One teardrop, one teardrop.)



I know that I've cried a lot today

And my heart's gonna hurt the same old way

'Cause I'm losing the love I thought was mine

The heartache's brought one teardrop at a time.



One teardrop at a time keeps telling me

That it won't be long until you'll be leaving me

When you go I'm gonna cry one more time

I'll take back my heart one teardrop at a time.



No matter how many tears I've cried

That old familiar feeling stays inside

My love for you won't leave just any time

I'll cry you from my heart one teardrop at a time.



One teardrop at a time keeps telling me

That it won't be long until you'll be leaving me

When you go I'm gonna cry one more time

I'll take back my heart one teardrop at a time...
