Feel Like Cryin' Lyrics

Why does it feel like January

When it's barely mid-September

Winter cold hits and it feels so scary

I love the lady but I can't defend her

I love the warmth she brings to mind

And I love the way she moves her eyes

Somehow she loves me back but it ain't no use denying

Oh, I feel like crying

And it tears me up so to see her suffer

Now that the nights are growing longer

And I have so little left to offer

And the will to leave her keeps getting stronger

Watching the bourbon fill her brain

Tearing up the back roads as it goes

Life is on sale but she's not interested in buying

Oh, I feel like crying

Waiting for the spring is in my bloodline

And shoveling snow is part of living

So I'll ask her once more will you be mine

Now that we're past the point of giving

But the freezer is broken and it won't defrost

And poetry wilts away with time

And she tells me it's not her fault and that she never gave up trying

Oh, I feel like crying

Life is on sale but she's not interested in buying

Oh, I feel like crying
