Some men keep their women in diamonds and pearls
Others keep their ladies in soft pretty words
Baby, you do something you've been doing for years
And to marvel at the way you just keep me in tears

In tears you just keep on breaking my heart
In tears, I never know where about to start
Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear
Why I love you and let you keep me in tears

People say I'm lucky to be loved by you
And I wouldn't deny it, it's only half true
The price that I pay for the love that I need
Is knowing too soon, just right where I'll be

In tears you just keep on breaking my heart
In tears, I never know where about to start
Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear
Why I love you and let you keep me in tears

Maybe someday I'll open my eyes and it will all be clear
Why I love you and let you keep me in tears
