TINY DROPS OF WATER
(Ruby Van Noy / Ann Burns / Barbara Fairchild)


Barbara Fairchild - 1971





There's something on my cheek I've never felt before
And they arrived when you walked out the door
You have just confirmed all my fears
With these tiny drops of water they call tears

Tiny drops of water streaming from my eyes
My lips are still warm from your kiss
When I realized your love for me had died
I cried tiny drops of water they call tears

A million lonely nights I know I'll cry for you
I wonder if you know what I'll be goin' through
With nothing left but loneliness and fears
And these tiny drops of water they call tears

Tiny drops of water streaming from my eyes
My lips are still warm from your kiss
When I realized your love for me had died
I cried tiny drops of water they call tears
I cried tiny drops of water they call tears
