Up to My Ears in Tears by Alan Jackson Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You told me you don't love me, when you walked out the door
I stood there feeling lonely, then the tears began to pour
What else could I do, I'd never felt like that before
So I cried an old blue river in the middle of the floor

[Chorus]
Now I'm up to my ears in tears
I'm crying night and day since you went away
The things you used to say honey, I no longer hear
The water's cold and clear, I'm drowning for you dear
Up to my ears in tears

[Verse 2]
Well I found some old love letters you wrote me years ago
But the words all ran together when the tears began to flow
Because you left that water running now it's got nowhere to go
If I can't wash away your memory guess I'll just go under slow

[Chorus]
Because I'm up to my ears in tears
I'm crying night and day since you went away
The things you used to say honey, I no longer hear
The water's cold and clear, I'm drowning for you dear
Up to my ears in tears
Yeah I'm up to my ears in tears
I'm crying night and day since you went away
The things you used to say honey, I no longer hear
That water's cold and clear, I'm drowning for you dear
Up to my ears in tears
Yeah that water's cold and clear
I'm drowning for you dear
Up to my ears in tears
