Lyrics
Tears in the Rain
By J. D. Simmons Copyright 2006
When we first met
I was twenty three
We fell in love
You were just nineteen
You know my intentions
They were always good
I?d work real hard
Like I said I would.
But I made a promise
That I could not keep
When I lied and said
That I took my last drink
Chorus
Now I hide my tears
Out in the rain
And as they fall
I feel ashamed
I?ve let the bottle
Between you and me
Now all I have
Is my memories
So I hide my tears
Out in the rain
And as they fall
I feel ashamed
I let the bottle
Get the best of me
Now all I have
Is my memories
Verse
The only mistake
That you ever made
Was when you said I do
And you took my name
The corner liquor store
Has become my home
Now that you
Are all but gone
Yea that old bottle
Is my best friend
I?ll keep on drinking
Till the bitter end
Repeat chorus twice end song
