The Salt In My Tears

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 never did it, no, I won't admit it

Why should I lie for you anymore?

You never loved me, you pushed and shoved me

I see the woman I never saw

I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted

It still hurts, but the pain has shifted

I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by

But I won't cry for the wasted years

'Cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

Feeling neglected, used and rejected

You need a shoulder to lean upon

Maybe you've picked him, found your next victim

Don't worry, someone will come along

I broke the spell that you kept me under

I had enough of the rain and thunder

I lost track of the time and I wonder why

But I won't cry for the wasted years

'Cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

I sit around and drink a few more beers

Until the memory just disappears

'Cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted

It still hurts but the pain has shifted

I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by

But I won't cry for the wasted years

'Cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

'Cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

'Cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
