TEARS IN MY BEER
(Roddy Byers / The Specials)

The Specials


Tears in my beer, Well it just ain't clear
I had a dream, Well so it seems
She's in the sun, Not having fun
And I'm standing here, Just the lonely one

Tears in my beer, Here comes another year
Seen it all before, Just like a closing door
There was a time, When she was mine
Well it's so long ago, Does she want to know?

I know you just think that I'm just singing the blues
But I've got nothing to lose

Tears in my beer, It's getting clear
Her face I see, Right next to me
She's drinking wine, And looking fine
I'm feeling sad, It's just a dream I had

I know you just think that I'm just singing the blues
But I've got nothing to lose

Tears in my beer, It just ain't clear
I had a dream, Well so it seems
She's in the sun, Just having fun
While I'm standing here, Tears in my beer

But she ain't here
Tears in my beer
