(drown in my own tears) If you don't think you'll be home soon I guess I'll drown in my own tears It brings a tear into my eyes When I begin to realize I've cried so much Since Since you've been been gone I guess I'm drowning in my own tears I sit and cry just like

In the silence of my mind I can see our love was just a line To a grasp of air That's nowhere And while I wait for love's embrace My life is but a race Since Since you're gone gone now All my light is left to waste I never learned the rule

To take away the heartache, to take away the loneliness I've been been feelin' since since you've been been gone, since since you've been been gone To take away the loneliness I've been been feelin' since since you've been been gone Don't you know, so many things they come and go Like your words

I ain't missing you Since Since you've been been gone, away Down this long distance line tonight Everytime I think of you I always catch my breath And I'm still standing here and your miles away And I'm wondering why you left And there's a storm that's raging

Alberta, Alberta, Where you been been so long? Ain't had no loving Since Since you've been been gone. Where'd you stay last night? Girl, you're on my mind. Alberta, Alberta Come home this morning, Clothes don't fit you right

Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do, You are so sweet, If I could just hold your charms again in my arms, Then life would be complete; Since Since you've been been gone dear, life don't seem the same, Please come back again. And after all's said and done,

don't know how don't know how, not to Love you I don't know how But I don't know how You said that time would ease the pain But I still hear your voice whisper my name Since Since you've been been gone my world stands still You said I'd forget, but I never will

I guess I'll drown in my own tears If you don't think You'll be home soon It brings a tear Into my eyes When I begin I've cried so much Since Since you've been been gone

But I blew it without even tryin' Since Since you've been been gone it's hard to carry on I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon But to settle down and write you a line I've been been meaning to phone you but from Minnesota Hell it's been been a very long time You wear it

I guess I'll drown in my own tears If you don't think You'll be home soon It brings a tear Into my eyes When I begin I've cried so much Since Since you've been been gone
