Lyrics John Mellencamp – Teardrops Will Fall

I read your letter, darling
Tears filled my eyes
All of your promises you made
Were nothing but lies

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

I’m gonna pray tonight, baby
Hoping you will hear
And maybe you’ll right
All those wrongs
And dry each tear
I’ll sit alone tonight
Hopin’ you will call
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight
Teardrops will fall

Teardrops will fall tonight
Tears I can’t hide
Tears that I’d rather keep
Deep down inside
Tears fall and love is gone

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
