A Thousand Tears Lyrics

When you were born, I cried a thousand tears
Thank God that you were healthy and for bringing you here
I picked you up and held you as gentle as a bird
I just stood and looked at you, I never even said a word
When you were born, I cried a thousand tears

I watched you grow into a fine young man
I didn’t notice that you were changing like young boys sometimes can
It started with the little things that I just let pass by
Now you’re breaking both our hearts, I’ve got to know the reason why
When you were born, I cried a thousand tears

A thousand tears, I cried, and many were the nights I nearly died
Just sitting there waiting for the telephone to ring
It’s your life not mine, but you’re heading for a mighty rough time
‘Cause that’s what being bad will only bring and nd losing you is something that I fear
Tonight I’ll cry another thousand tears

You left home and never said goodbye
I held your mom and told her, he’ll be fine, don’t cry

A year went by when I got a call that said you were coming home
My friends told me to just be ready ‘cause you weren’t gonna be alone
When you walked in with a little boy that looked a lot like you
Dad, you said, I’m sorry for everything I put you through
But, I’ve changed my life and he’s the reason, dad, are we welcome here?

Welcome home son

Late that night, he cried a thousand tears

A thousand tears, I cried, and many were the nights I nearly died
Just sitting there waiting for the telephone to ring
It’s your life not mine, but you’re heading for a mighty rough time
‘Cause that’s what being bad will only bring and nd losing you is something that I fear
Late that night, he cried a thousand tears
