Wow!

Tears began to fall,

The writing's on the wall

'Cause there was nothing I could say

She took the car and drove away

And now I'm sittin' here all alone

Without no love of my own

That's when the tears began to fall

'Cause I ain't got no love at all



Tears began to fall and fall and fall

Down my shirt

'Cause I feel so hurt

Since my baby drove away



Tears began to fall

And tears began to fall

Tears began to fall and fall and fall

And tears began to fall



Ay ay ay aaaaiee . . .

Ay ay ay aaaaiee . . .

Ay-ay ay ay-ay aaaaiee . . .

Ay-ay ay ay-ay aaaaiee . . .



And now I'm sittin' here all alone

Without no love of my own

Without no love of my own

Without no love of my own



Tears began to fall

Tears began to fall

Tears began to fall

Tears began to fall



Tears began to fall

Tears began to fall

Tears began to fall

Tears began to fall



Now!

Tears began to fall and fall and fall

Down my shirt

'Cause I feel so hurt

Since my baby drove away



Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah

Tears began to fall

(Tears began to fall)

Tears began to fall

Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah

Tears began to fall

(Tears began to fall)

Tears began to fall

Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah

Tears began to fall

(Tears began to fall again)

Tears began to fall

Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah

Tears began to fall

(Tears began to fall)

Tears began to fall

Wah-wah-wah-wah-wah-waaah . . .
