Song Lyrics

(for guide purposes only)

Ev'ryday I sit here a-bawlin'
Just like a little kid
You told me to cry you a river
Believe it or not, I did

'Cos I've been countin' teardrops instead of sheep
Honey, honey, I just can't sleep
Because I miss (Yeah-yeah) you so (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Since you're gone the teardrops flow
You told me I cry lonely teardrops
For treatin' you so mean
All I need to keep me from drownin'
Is a plumber or a submarine
'Cos I've been countin' teardrops instead of sheep
Honey, honey, I just can't sleep
Because I miss (Yeah-yeah) you so (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Since you've gone the teardrops flow
Forty days and forty nights
I sit here in the gloom
Well, if you don't call or come back soon
I'm gonna drown in my living room
I hear tell they got seven oceans
Up to the present day
If you don't come back soon, pretty baby
I'm gonna make it eight
'Cos I've been countin' teardrops instead of sheep
Honey, honey, I just can't sleep
Because I miss (Yeah-yeah) you so (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Since you've gone the teardrops flow
Countin' teardrops instead of sheep
Countin' teardrops instead of sheep
Countin' teardrops insteadFADE

As recorded by EMILE FORD:

Ev'ryday I sit here a-bawlin'
Just like a little kid
You told me to cry you a river
Believe it or not, I did
'Cos I've been countin' teardrops instead of sheep (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Honey, honey, I just can't sleep
'Cos I miss (Yeah-yeah) you so (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Since you've gone the teardrops flow (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
You told me I cry lonely teardrops
For treatin' you so mean (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
All I need to keep me from drownin'
Is a plumber or a submarine
'Cos I've been countin' teardrops instead of sheep (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Honey, honey, I just can't sleep
'Cos I miss (Yeah-yeah) you so (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
Since you've gone the teardrops flow
Forty days and forty nights
I sit here in the gloom
Well, if you don't call (Yeah-yeah) or come back soon (Yeah-yeah)
I'm gonna drown in my livin' room
Well I hear tell they've got seven oceans
Up to the present day (Doo-doo-doo-doo)
If you don't come back soon, pretty baby
I'm gonna make it eight
'Cos I've been countin' teardrops instead of sheep (Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)
Honey, honey, I just can't sleep
'Cos I miss (Yeah-yeah) you so (Yeah-yeah-yeah)
