I Couldn't Keep From Crying
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I saw you walking by his side heard you whisper all those lies
And I couldn't keep from crying
You sang him love songs tenderly that should have been for you and me
And I couldn't keep from crying
I saw his eyes drinking your charms while he held you in his arms
Him with all his wedding ways rules your heart now in my place
I stood and watched him steal a kiss from two lips I know I'll miss
And I couldn't keep from crying
[ steel ]
I saw his eyes drinking your charms...
