"Before the Next Teardrop Falls" Lyrics

(Ben Peters - Vivian Keith)

If he brings you happiness
Then I wish you both the best
It's your happiness that matters most of all
But if he 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 he 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 cried
If he ever leaves you blue
Just remember I love you
And I'll be there before the next teardrop falls.

Yes, I'll be there before the next teardrop falls...
