Washing My Dreams In Tears lyrics
Oh once my heart was light and gay and didn t realize
Until you vanished from my side and opened up my eyes
I balanced up the books on you the answer s very clear
The final total comes into exactly nothin dear
I m fillin up a washing tub of tears I shed for you
And dumpin in my oldest dreams I ve got a job to do
I m washing all my dreams in tears to rid my misery
And hangin out on the line that you handed me
[ guitar ]
At night when I lie down to rest instead of coutin sheep
I count the many lies you told to put myself to sleep
I count the times you cheated to and knowing how you are
I d like to count them everyone but I can t count that far
I m fillin up a washing tub...
[ steel ]
I ll take the brush you used and given me to brush all fear
And brush away my thoughts of you that linger round so near
Put on my walking shoes I got when you gave me the air
Go out and found somebody new someone who really care
I m fillin up a washing tub...
