I'll Drown In My Tears

Steve Winwood · Other Songs - Steve Winwood

It brings a tear to my eye when I begin to realise

I cried so much since you've been gone

I guess I'll drown in my own tears

Why can't you come on home to me and I won't be all alone

If you don't think that you'll be home soon to me baby

I guess I'll drown in my own tears

I know it's true into each life

Some rain, a little rain must fall

I'm so blue here without you

It keeps on raining, pouring for you



Why can't you come on home to me and I won't be all alone

If you don't say that, love, that you'll be home soon

I guess I'll drown in my own tears

When I wake up in the morning, I think

I think that I'm gonna drown in my own tears

I think I'll drown in my own tears

I'll Drown In My Tears
