Rush hour came crawling out of the best laid plans of noon
|
The vodka in the fridge at home sang with a haunting tune.
|
But I haven¡¯t heard a song I love in seven weeks or more
|
I wondered if that little bird won¡¯t land here no more
|
|
You can¡¯t count tears in the ocean in the dying days of June
|
|
I¡¯ve gone three miles in second gear and now I¡¯m down to first
|
Bring me a little water Sylvie, I¡¯m dying here of thirst
|
How can I tear the bottom out of these ass-drag blues?
|
If I cannot hack it here can I go back to paying dues?
|
|
You can¡¯t count tears in the ocean in the dying days of June
|
|
Well leave me here for dead is the song of my sigh
|
As I pull off at Queensland beach and let the traffic by
|
A southern breeze sings me home I wade in a western tune.
|
Well the sea may rake my sorrow back but it come crashing back too soon
|
|
You can¡¯t count tears in the ocean in the dying days of June
|
You can¡¯t count tears in the ocean in the dying days of June

Can't Count Tears
