Tears of Blood - Ron Pope

I could come by rail or Baby I could come by car

I've been missin' you and Houston ain't that far

And I cannot remember all the reasons that you left

I know none of them rings true inside my heart

Bet you're drinkin'as you go but Baby you're so full of holes

I'm surprised the whiskey doesn't pour right out

I may not be your best choice but I thought love could fill the void

If you need something that will not let you down

When the tide comes and wets the embers

Of the fire you tried to keep

Just remember that I will wait for you

With these tears of blood I weep

It's lookin' like a storm out here on Highway 61

At least that's where we were before I fell asleep

Me and all the boys are livin' hard out on the road

I know you don't care just talkin'as I think

When the tide comes and wets the embers

Of the fire you tried to keep

Just remember that I will wait for you

With these tears of blood I weep

If you could teach me how

I swear I'd stay on the ground

I just feel like I am falling down

When time has washed away all of the emptiness and pain

The parts the booze and pills just couldn't kill

Hope you turn and come back home; I'll be waitin'here alone

Cause I swear to God I know I'll love you still

When the tide comes and wets the embers

Of the fire you tried to keep

Just remember that I will wait for you

With these tears of blood I weep

When the tide comes and wets the embers

Of the fire you tried to keep

Just remember that I will wait for you

With these tears of blood I weep

With these tears of blood I weep
