Your Worries And Troubles Are Mine
The Stanley Brothers · Other Songs - The Stanley Brothers
There's always a tear in your eye
You've lived a hard life one I'd rather not lead
I ought to be glad it's not me
But when tears fill your eyes and clouds hide the sky
Your heart is so sad and you have a worried mind
You'll know my heart is with you and my love for you ain't blind
Your worries and troubles are mine
Now the nights are hard to get through as I wait restlessly
My letters are written in vain
Unsure of your feelings my tears fall endlessly
And my heart's beating rhythm with the rain
Your Worries And Troubles Are Mine
