Oceans of Tears Songtext
von Tennessee Ernie Ford with Kay Starr

Why do I like you?
Why do I like you, too?

Why don′t I forget you?
You're gonna break my achin′ heart if I let you

Ever since I met you
You got me drownin' in an ocean of tears

Love just keeps me cryin'
You′re gonna break my achin′ heart with your lyin'

Feel as though I′m dyin'
You got me drownin′ in an ocean of tears

I'm just like a weepin′ willow
A-weepin' and a-weepin' over nothin′ at all
You could bet your life
I keep that phone beside my pillow
What′ll I do, what'll I do, I′d like to call
I know you'd like to call


Though my heart is achin′
You're gonna lose the lovin′ heart that you're breakin'
That′s when you′ll awaken
And find you're drownin′ in an ocean of tears

I'm just like a weepin′ willow
Weepin' over nothin′ at all
Keep that phone beside my pillow
What'll I do
What'll I do
I hope you call

Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooohhhhh
Though my heart is achin′
You′re gonna lose the lovin' heart that you′re breakin'
That′s when you'll awaken
And find you′re drownin' in an ocean of tears

Drownin' in an ocean of tears
Drownin′ in an ocean of tears
