I'M DROWING IN A RIVER OF TEARS.
ONE THAT HAS BEEN BUILT,
THREW OUT THESE MANY YEARS.
THE TEARS WERE FOR
THE JOY YOU FIRST,
BROUGHT INTO MY LIFE.
THEN LATER ON, FOR ALL THE STRIFE.
THEY WERE SHED AS WE,
BROUGHT NEW LIFE,
INTO THIS WORLD.
YOU WERE THERE.
WITH EVER TEAR I CRIED IN PAIN,
YOU STOOD BY ME & TOLD ME ,
WHAT WE WERE TO GAIN.
THREE BEAUTYFULL CHILDREN.
AND WITH THEM CAME,
TEARS OF JOY & TEARS OF PAIN.
YOU STOOD BY ME THREW IT ALL.
UNTIL YEARS LATER,
WHEN YOU MADE THE WRONG CALL.
YOU LET A WOMAN,
COME IN BETWEEN US.
AND DOWNWARD OUR REALTIONSHIP DID FALL.
ALONG WITH TOO MANY TEARS TO COUNT.
EVEN THOUGH I FORGAVE YOU,
THE TEARS STILL FALL.
FROM TIME TO TIME.
CAUSE I KNOW THINGS CAN TURN ON A DIME.
WE HAVE MOVED ON WITH OUR LIVES,
WITHOUT THE WHORE,
AND ALL HER LIES!!!
SO AS I STAND HERE TODAY.
I STAND WITH MY HEAD HELD HIGH.
BECAUSE I KNOW.
I HAVE ALWAYS TRIED.
AND EVEN THOUGH,
THE TEARS WILL ALWAYS FALL.
I CAN NOT BE DROWNED.
BECAUSE I FINNALY GOT.
THE RIVER DOWN....
