[Verse 1]
I read your letter, darlin', tears filled my eyes
All of the promises you made were nothing but lies
So I turned your photograph around, face to the wall
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight
Teardrops will fall

[Chorus]
Teardrops will fall tonight, tears I can't hide
Tears that I'd rather keep deep down inside
Tears fall, and love is gone beyond these walls
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight
Teardrops will fall

[Verse 2]
I'm gonna pray tonight, babe, hopin' you will hear
And maybe you'll write all those wrongs and dry each tear
I sit alone tonight, hopin' you will call
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight
Teardrops will fall

[Chorus]
Teardrops will fall tonight, tears I can't hide
Tears that I'd rather keep deep down inside
Tears fall, and love is gone beyond these walls
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight
Teardrops will fall

[Chorus]
Teardrops will fall tonight, tears I can't hide
Tears that I'd rather keep deep down inside
Tears fall, and love is gone beyond these walls
And when I dim the lights in my room tonight
When I dim the lights in my room tonight
Teardrops will fall
