Just how many of my teardrops
Will it take for you to change
From a heart that cheats
To a heart that beats for me
For goodness sake
For goodness sake
How many tears will it take

Can we start anew
I'm beggin' you
Tired of feeling blue
Inside I ache
Inside I ache
How many tears will it take

I don't want a true confession
About all the times you lied
I'm afraid to hear the secret
That you hide
You keep me away
You keep me away
How many tears will it take

Can we start anew
I'm beggin' you
Tired of feeling blue
Inside I ache
Inside I ache
How many teardrops will it take

How many tears will it take
How many tears will it take
