(I'll keep countin' teardrops till you back again)      They say a little tear can hurt an awful lot   But it'll break your heart when it's cause by someone who's forgot   They say a little tear won't ever walk away   Till someone who's gotta stay home comes home to stay      I'm countin' my teardrops as I sit alone and cry   Each tear reminds me that you said goodbye   I'm countin' my teardrops as they fall one by one   And I'll keep countin' teardrops till you back again      Things aren't right my world is at an end   And my dreams have gone to pieces seems I just can't win   Since you've been gone I don't know what I'll do   Cause my dream world's built around dreams that'll never come true      I'm countin' my teardrops as they fall one by one   Each tear reminds me that you said goodbye   I'm countin' my teardrops as I sit alone and cry   Now I'll keep countin' teardrops till you back again   And I'll keep countin' teardrops till you back again
