Too Many Teardrops

(album: There Won't Be Anymore - 1974)

The closest friend I ever had I lost today
They all claim the bottle took his life away
But they're wrong for drinking played the smallest part
It was too many teardrops from a broken heart

Oh how he loved her but I loved her too
And what I did any other man might do
But after losing her the end begins to start
With too many teardrops from a broken heart

She never really loved him he just couldn't see
And drinking was his way to kill her memory
But he wasn't strong enough to play the loser's part
Cry too many teardrops from a broken heart

Oh how he loved her but I loved her too
And what I did any other man might do
But after losing her the end begins to start
With too many teardrops from a broken heart
