John Mellencamp — Teardrops Will Fall

[Verse 1] I read your letter, darlin', tears filled my eyes All of the promises you made were nothing but lies So I turned your photograph around, face to the wall And when I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall [Chorus] Teardrops will fall tonight, tears I can't hide Tears that I'd rather keep deep down inside Tears fall, and love is gone beyond these walls And when I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall [Verse 2] I'm gonna pray tonight, babe, hopin' you will hear And maybe you'll write all those wrongs and dry each tear I sit alone tonight, hopin' you will call And when I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall [Chorus] Teardrops will fall tonight, tears I can't hide Tears that I'd rather keep deep down inside Tears fall, and love is gone beyond these walls And when I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall [Chorus] Teardrops will fall tonight, tears I can't hide Tears that I'd rather keep deep down inside Tears fall, and love is gone beyond these walls And when I dim the lights in my room tonight When I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall
