Up To My Ears In Tears

Alan Jackson, Don Sampson

You told me you don't love me, when you wlaked out the door

I stood there feelin' lonley, then the tears began to pour

What else could I do, I'd never felt like that before

So I cried an ol' blue river in the middle of the floor

(Chorus)

Now I'm up to my ears in tears

I'm cryin' 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 drownin' for you, dear

Up to my ears in tears

Well, I found some some old love letters you wrote me years ago

But the words all ran together when the tears began to flow

Cause you left that water runnin' now it's got nowhere to go

If I can't wash away your memory, guess I'll just go under slow

(Chorus)

The water's cold and clear

I'm drowning for you, dear

Up to my ears in tears
