Too Many Tears
David Coverdale · Other Songs - David Coverdale
Did everything you wanted me to
So tell me baby
Where did I do wrong
I told you what you wanted to know
Precious secrets never spoken before
All I'm asking
Where did I go wrong
Some things are better left unsaid
But, all I do is cry instead
Now, I've cried me a river
Thinking how it used to be
There've been too many tears falling
And there've been too many hearts breaking in two
Remember what we had together
Believing it would last forever
So tell me baby
Where did I go wrong
Everything I had was yours
More than I have ever given before
So won't you tell me
Did I hurt you so bad
I guess I'm fooling myself
'Cause I want you and no one else
And I can't understand
Why you're doing these things to me
There've been too many tears falling
And there've been too many hearts breaking in two
Remember what we had together
Believing it would last forever
So tell me baby
Where did I go wrong, where did I go wrong
Now my heart is breaking
My whole world is shaking
'Cause I can't understand
Why you're doing these things to me
There've been too many tears falling
And there've been too many hearts breaking in two
Remember what we had together
Believing it would last forever
So tell me baby
Where did I go wrong
Won't you tell me baby, where did I go wrong
Won't you tell me baby, where did I go wrong
Where did I go wrong
