THOSE TEARS IN YOUR EYES (WERE NOT FOR ME)
(Ernest Tubb)

Ernest Tubb - 1946


There were tears in your eyes when you kissed me
But no love in your heart could I see
Four years that I’ve had been gone
Must have been too lone
Cause Those Tears In Your Eyes were Not For Me

I know now that you’ve found another
And you’re wondering if I will set you free
I wouldn’t know the score
To want you any more
Cause Those Tears In Your Eyes Were Not For Me

Ah come in Jimmy
Instrumentals

I remember the time when we were happy
But I guess it was never meant to be
I don’t know who to blame
But you have brought me shame
Cause Those Tears In Your Eyes Were Not For Me

All our friends seem to know just what happened
But I don’t want their kind of sympathy
I just want to forget 
A lovely girl that I met
Cause Those Tears In Your Eyes Are Not For Me
