(Words & music by Larry Gatlin)
I told her to leave me alone
That´s what she´s done, just what she´s done

And a house built for two, ain´t a home
When it´s lived in by one, one lonely one

And I can no longer hear footsteps, come right down the hall
Here come the teardrops, bitter they are, harder they fall
She caught me lying, then she caught a train
And I caught a fever walking home in the rain
Oh yeah!
But it´s over and I´m done
She left me once and for all
Here come the teardrops, bitter they are, harder they fall
Here come the teardrops, bitter they are, harder they fall
