Jimmy Dickens - I Cried Again Lyrics

Today I passed you on the street and my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by your side and he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
Then suddenly I got that old time feeling I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
[ harmonica ]
Today I passed you on the street
Teardrops fell the night you said I love you dear and you were wed
I watched you while you held his hand I turned away and cried again
I cried again when I reached home there set your picture all alone
I'd thought of things that might have been and I bowed my head and cried again
[ steel ]
I took your letters from the shelf and read aloud just to myself
And just before I reached the end and I bowed my head and cried again
I'd thought of things so long ago and of the love I wanted so
And then our fate had took a hand and I bowed my head and cried again
[ fiddle ]
And here's the reason why I say I must throw your things away
For they would always bring me pain and then I go and cry again
...
It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you and hold you just the way I used to do
Oh heaven only knows how much I miss you I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
