Some men keep their women in diamonds and pearls
Others keep the ladies with soft pretty words
But baby you do something, you been doin' for years
I marvel at the way you just keep me in tears
In tears, you just keep on breakin' my heart
In tears, I never know when they're about to start
Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear
Why I love you and let you keep me in tears
People say I'm lucky to be loved by you
And I wouldn't deny it, but it's only half true
The price that I pay for the love that I need
Is knowing too soon just right where I'll be
In tears, you just keep on breakin' my heart
In tears, I never know when they're about to start
Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear
Why I love you and let you keep me in tears
Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear
Why I love you and let you keep me in tears
