Tennessee Teardrops

We met last summer
In sunny Tennessee
I loved him so much
And thought he loved me

I was so foolish
Thought wedding bells would ring
I placed his promise
Above everything

Tennessee teardrops are falling
I feel so bad I want to die
Tennessee teardrops are falling
Just as blue as the blue of his eyes

There was a time when he seemed so close to me
He slipped through my fingers
So fast and easily

Like waves on the ocean
We drifted more apart
Then without warning
He broke my poor heart

Tennessee teardrops are falling
I feel so bad I want to die
Tennessee teardrops are falling
Just as blue as the blue of his eyes
