"Teardrops In My Heart" lyrics - JIM REEVES

I Look back into the past since we're parted
The last few days seem like a million years
Why was I so long self imparted
A Smile can't find it's way through all these tears.

[Instrumental]

The whole world seems to know I've been unfaithful
It's all my fault because we had to part
It hurts me so but do they know I'm thankful
That I can say with teardrops in my heart.

[Instrumental]

I wish that I could spell these tears I'm hiding
Or create a broken pardon on my desk
But there's no trail for sorrow when your flyin'
So I'm paying with teardrops of regret.
