Píseň: Teardrops On The Rocks

Interpret:
Jim Reeves
Album:
The Blue Side Of Lonesome
Well, hello Sam, now how you been
Guess it's a while since I've been in
Before she left you know we came here a lot.
Oh but, without her here it's not the same
Pour just one and keep the change
Tonight I'm having teardrops on the rocks.


Well, I remember when she sat right there
I can close my eyes and see
Those soft lights shining in her hair
And she's saying she loves me.


Although I know it's just pretend and
I can't turn back the clock
I'm keeping memories alive
With teardrops on the rocks.
Teardrops on the rocks.


I had to come back just once again
'Cause Sam you used to be our friend
Now let me talk of things that used to be
Say here's a dime go play our song
Just one more time and I'll be gone
Tonight it's teardrops on the rocks for me.


Yes, I remember when she sat right there
I can close my eyes and see
Those soft lights shining in her hair
And she's saying she loves me.


Although I know it's just pretend and
I can't turn back the clock
I'm keeping memories alive
With teardrops on the rocks.
Teardrops on the rocks.
Teardrops on the rocks...


(Sam how 'bout, pour me one more drink.)
