Linda Ronstadt - Teardrops Will Fall Lyrics

I read your letter

Tears filled my eyes

All of your promises failing

Nothing but lies

So I turned your photograph over face to the wall

And when I dim the light in my room tonight

Teardrops will fall



Teardrops will fall tonight

Tears I can't hide

Tears that I tried to keep deep down inside

Tears from the love that's gone beyond recall

And when I dim the lights in my room tonight

Teardrops will fall



I'm going to pray tonight baby

Hoping you will hear

Maybe you'll right the wrong and dry each tear

I'll sit alone tonight hoping you will call

And when I dim the light in my room tonight

Teardrops will fall



Teardrops will fall tonight

Tears I can't hide

Tears that tried to keep deep down inside

Tears from the love that's gone beyond recall

And when I dim the light in my room tonight

Teardrops will fall

When I dim the light in my room tonight

Teardrops will fall
