[Verse 1]
It brings a tear, woah, to my eyes
Every time I begin to realize
I cry so much, baby
Since you've been gone
Oh, I believe I'm gonna drown
Drown in my own tears, now

[Verse 2]
I sit and cry just like a child
Woah, my pourin' tears they're runnin' wild
And if you don't say, babe
Say that you'll be home soon, Lord, have mercy
I believe I'm gonna drown
Woah yeah, in my own tears, yes, I will

[Bridge]
I know it's true into each life
Yes, some rain, a little rain has got to fall
Ooh, I'm so blue, babe, without you
It keeps rainin' more and more and more and more and more and more

Oh, you sound so fine tonight, children (Drown in my own tears)
Woah-hoo, woah, yeah (Drown in my own tears)
I'm gonna drown (Drown in my own tears)
Nobody wants to have to die (Drown in my own tears)
Woah-hoo, woah-hoo, yes (Drown in my own tears)
I believe I'm gonna drown (Drown in my own tears)
Woah, Lord, drown, woah, now in my own tears
Woah, yeah
