I Love You Drops

(album: Stateside - 1966)

They're not teardrops, just sincere drops
They're I love you drops 'cause I love you

They were on my pillow when I woke up this morning
They were on the letter I tried all day to write
And just a little while ago I saw them falling
On your picture as I kissed it goodnight

I love you, drops, I miss you, drops
Hurry home, drops, you've been gone so long, drops
They're not teardrops, just sincere drops
That say I'm lonesome and I love you

Never knew this heart could hurt the way it hurts for you
Never lived so many lifetimes in a week
Why don't you come back to me the way you said you would
And kiss these softly little crystals off my cheek

I love you, drops, I miss you, drops
Hurry home, drops, you've been gone so long, drops
They're not teardrops, just sincere drops
That say I'm lonesome and I love you
