There would be so many little teardrops fall
I don't think that I could count them all
And I know a heart could never ache like mine
If I couldn't love you all the time
Cause I get lonely in a hurry... [ guitar ]
If you ever took your love away from me I'd die
I don't think that I might live in memories
And for sure I know that I would lose my mind
If I couldn't love you all the time
Cause I get lonely in a hurry...
I don't think I could take it very long

The candle of your set you gave me on the night of my birthday
The records that you bought the hi-fi we loved to play
The decorating man will come and rearrange them
Yes I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah [ guitar ]
Take the carpet off the floor throw it out the door it's filled with tears
Everything I find that bring you to my mind must disappear
Every night I dream I'll dream of someone new
Yes I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah
Mhm oh yeah mhm oh yeah

Now the race is on and here comes pride up the backstretch
Heartaches are going to the inside
My tears are holding back they're tryin' not to fall
My heart's out of the running true love scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches and the winner loses all [ guitar ]
One day I ventured in love never once suspectin' what the final result would be
How I lived in fear of waking up each morning and finding that you're gone from me
Cause there's ache and pain in my heart for today was the one that I hated to face
Somebody new came up to win her and I came out in second place
Who in all this world did I think would be untrue
Oh oh least of all least of all you
Who did I expect to laugh and tell me we were through
Oh oh least of all least of all you
You who was so unstanding you who said to me
We would always be together through eternity
Who know but I love to see hurt the way I do
Oh oh least of all least of all you
You who was so unstanding...
Oh oh least of all least of all you

Cindy Lou Cindy Lou well I want one like her too
If I can't find a girl like Cindy Lou
I'm gonna have a little talk with you friend
I'm gonna have a little talk with you [ guitar ]
You said her hair was black as coal
And hung nearly to the ground
And her eyes would sparkle just like the gold
That was flying all around
You said there's a lotta pretty girls you knew
Could you help me find one too
If I can't find a girl like Cindy Lou
I'm gonna have a little talk with you friend
I'm gonna have a little talk with you
Cindy Lou Cindy Lou... [ guitar ]
I'm gonna hop on my pony ride where they don't know me
And leave behind me all my bills
I got a can full of beans and a whole lotta greens
Way up there in them hills
I'll have it made just layin' in the shade
Way up there in the blue
And if all of my dreams don't come true
I'm gonna have a little talk with you friend
I'm gonna have a little talk with you
Cindy Lou Cindy Lou...
I'm gonna have a little talk with you friend
I'm gonna have a little talk with you
I'm gonna have a little talk with you friend
I'm gonna have a little talk with you

I might say that I don't miss you I was glad you said goodbye
Make believe I might be lonely
But my heart knows that I've been known to cry
Oh I've been known... [ fiddle - steel ]
I might say you left no wonders that I found somebody new
Make believe that I don't win you
That I've been known to cry because I still love you
Love's gonna live here love's gonna live here love's gonna live here again
No more loneliness only happiness love's gonna live here again [ guitar ]
I hear bells a ringin' I hear birds a singin' love's gonna live here again
I hear bees a hummin' and I know the day's a comin' love's gonna live here again
Love's gonna live here... [ guitar ]
Love's gonna live here...

Monday Tuesday Wednesday wonder if you miss me too
Thursday Friday Saturday making plans just to be with you
Oh I'm a gonna be so sweet to you neath the moon above
I'd like to make everyday with you a holiday for love [ guitar ]
Well I'd like to make everyday with you...
I'd like to make everyday with you a holiday for love

She never once has told me that she needs me
She forgets when I'm around her all the time
There are words I try to say when she turns and walks away
But as far as my heart's concerned she's mine
She's mine and yet I know someday I'll lose her
But she'll never take this happiness I've found
I know it may sound foolish when I tell you
That I'm satisfied just having her around
Even when she's in my arms I know she's lonely
Wish that I could take that someone from her mind
But since her mother left our world she's been daddy's little girl
She's a baby I'm her daddy and she's mine
She's a baby I'm her daddy and she's mine

Where does the broken heart come from
Where does the broken heart come from
It comes when you find that you love the roving kind
That's where the broken heart comes from
Where does the roving kind come from
Where does the roving kind come from
From the wild and restless river that wanders on forever
That's where the roving kind comes from
Where does the restless river come from
Where does the restless river come from
It comes from little tears that I shed through the years
That's where the restless river comes from
Where does a little tear come from
