i never thought i’d see
you turn your back on me
and taste another kiss with such delight
it hurt me so inside
oh lord
i musta’ cried
the tear of the year
last night
and darlin’
when i heard
that final crushing word
that someone else’s arms would hold you tight
i wished that i was dead
oh lord
you konow i shed
the tear of the year
last night
i built my whole world around you
by each and every dream
and now you’re slipping
through my fingers
like the ripples
in a stream
oh
oh darlin’
you can say
our love has seen it’s day
but i’ll forever go on feelin’ blue
i feel the hurt inside
i felt the night i cried
the tear of the year
over you
oh
the tear
of the year
oh
over you
