Lyrics Rodney Crowell – I Hope You Shed A Million Tears

I gave my heart and soul to you
You done me wrong for years
I hope someday you suffer too
And shed a million tears

Now I can see you clear as day
There on our wedding night
The warm glow of your heart so gay
And your eyes blue shining bright

Your lips were like a rose red wine
The stars alone can yield
My one and only valentine
My lily of the field

Then there came a stranger to our town
A man of worldly charms
Who turned our whole world upside down
And stole you from my arms

Our love was like a sacred scroll
You never did learn to read
I gave to you my heart and soul
And you left it there to bleed

I made a vow to stand by you
Down through our golden years
You broke my heart and left me blue
To shed a million tears

You said goodbye so casually
Oh I took it hard it’s true
The bible says forgive you
But that’s something I can’t do

I loved you like there’s no tomorrow
And found out that there’s not

When the world was ours your heart was mine
And our dreams were one of bliss
The days were like a winding stream
And the nights were like a kiss

So we stood before our savior
True believers in his grace
I gave my very soul to you
And you threw it in my face

I said I’d be right there with you
When we faced our final years
I hope someday you suffer too
And shed a million tears

I hope someday you suffer too
And shed a million tears
