Loretta Lynn
"Before The Next Teardrop Falls" lyrics

Before The Next Teardrop Falls

If she brings you happiness
Then I wish you both the best
It's your happiness
That matters most of all

But if she ever breaks your heart
If the teardrops ever start
I'll be there
Before the next teardrop falls

Though it hurts to let you go
Darling, I want you to know
That I'll stand by you
If ever you should call

And if I should ever hear
That she made you shed a tear
I'll be there
Before the next teardrop falls

I'll be there anytime
You need me by your side
To dry away
Every teardrop
That you've cried

And if she ever leaves you blue
Ah, just remember I love you
And I'll be there
Before the next teardrop falls

I'll be there
Before the next teardrop falls
