There's a tear in the sky and I think it might rain,
My heart feels the thunder and my soul feel the pain.
There's a cloud over yonder and it's bringing me down,
All since you left me here on my own.

There's a tear in the sky like the one in my eye
and it hurts me so much that I think I might die
You know that I love you tell me why, tell me why?
Why say you love me when you know it's a lie.

When we were together we only knew fun
in all that we're doin' in all that we done
For the life of me baby, I don't understand
Why did you leave me a broken down man?

There's a tear in the sky like the one in my eye
and it hurts me so much that I think I might die
You know that I love you tell me why, tell me why?
Why say you love me when you know it's a lie.

I've seen the sunrise and I've seen it set,
And all of your lovin', I just can't forget,
And all that you've done me, I'm still needing more,
Like the tear in the sky girl, I think it might pour.

There's a tear in the sky like the one in my eye
and it hurts me so much that I think I might die
You know that I love you tell me why, tell me why?
Why say you love me when you know it's a lie.

It seems it's forever since you been around
My tears keep on fallin',  I fear I might drown
So if you are out there and feelin the same,
Then call on me baby and we'll love again.

There's a tear in the sky like the one in my eye
and it hurts me so much that I think I might die
You know that I love you and that's not a lie,
So why did you leave me, tell me why tell me why.
