Connie Smith – Run Away Little Tears Lyrics
Run away little tears, you’ve been locked up too long
Run away little tears, our baby’s gone
I look at his picture touchin’ old souvenir
And then grow weak from holding back these locked up tears
Run away little tears, you’ve been locked up too long
Run away little tears, our baby’s gone
A storm of emotion keeps on working within
Breaking down a heart that only he could mend
Run away little tears, you’ve been locked up too long
Run away little tears, our baby’s gone
Run away little tears, our baby’s gone
