TWO TEARDROPS   (Bill Anderson - Steve Wariner)   « © '99 Sony/ATV Songs »   RECORDED BY STEVE WARINER      Two teardrops were floatin' down the river   One teardrop said to the other   I'm from the soft blue eyes of a woman in love   I'm a tear of joy she couldn't carry   She was so happy she'd just gotten married   I was on her cheek when she wiped me away with her glove   I could tell by the look on her face she didn't need me   So I drifted on down and caught me a ride to the sea   The other tear said we've got a connection   I'm a tear of sorrow born of rejection   I'm from the sad brown eyes of her old flame   She told him they would be life-long companions   Left him with questions and not any answers   I was on his cheek as he stood there callin' her name   I could tell he had a lot of my friends for company   So I drifted on down and caught me a ride to the sea   Oh the ocean's a little bit bigger tonight   Two more teardrops somebody cried   One of them happy and one of them bluer than blue   The tide goes out and the tide comes in   And someday there'll be teardrops again   Released in a moment of pleasure for a moment of pain   And they drift on down and ride to the sea again   Last night I sat in the waiting room   The nurse walked in and gave me the news   It's a baby girl and they're both fine   Old man sittin' not ten feet away just lost his wife said to me   You've got brand new angel and I lost mine   I guess the Good Lord giveth and the Good Lord taketh away   And we both wiped a tear drop from our face   Oh the ocean's a little bit bigger tonight   Two more teardrops somebody cried   One of them happy and one of them bluer than blue   The tide goes out and the tide comes in   A whole new circle of life begins   Where tears are part of the pleasure and part of the pain   Till they drift on down and ride to the sea again   Two teardrops floatin' down the river   Two teardrops floatin' down the river
