Too many teardrops
For one heart to be crying
Too many teardrops

For one heart to carry on

You're way up on top now

Baby, since you left me, yeah
And you're always laughing
Down at me, yeah


But watch out, baby
I'm gonna get there

Yes, I am, and
We'll be together
For just a little while


And we'll start
Gathering tears

Way up here, ha ha
And you'll start crying
Ninety-six tears, hey

Cry, cry, cry, hey
Ha ha ha, yeah


Hey, I'll be on top
And you'll be there
Just looking up, yeah


I had a way to get up here
Yes, I did

And I don't see you
Waving down


I'm gonna get you
Yes, I am, ha, ha


Cry, cry, cry
Too many teardrops for
One heart to be crying, yeah

Too many teardrops for
One little heart to carry on


Yeah, cry, cry, cry
Ninety-six tears, yeah, yeah
Cry, cry, cry all night long

In the midnight hour
