I got nine million,nine hundred 
ninety nine thousand, 
nine hundred ninety nine 
tears to go 
And then I don't know 
If I'll be over you

The sun didn't shine 
this morning 
It's been raining 
the whole day through 
Suddenly without warning, 
you found somebody new 
That's when the first tear came 
falling from my eyes 
I'm beginning to feel the pain, 
seeing nothing 
But cloudy skies

I got nine million,nine hundred 
ninety nine thousand, 
nine hundred ninety nine 
tears to go 
And then I don't know 
If I'll be over you 
will I be over you

You're out tonight 
with your new love 
I'm far,far from your mind, 
tryin'to get over you 
Love could take 
a whole lifetime 
I can't believe you 
could want anybody else 
So no one could take my place 
At least that's what I keep 
telling myself 
As the tears fall down my face 

I got nine million,nine hundred 
ninety nine thousand, 
nine hundred ninety nine 
tears to go 
And then I don't know 
If I'll be over you 
will I be over you

I got nine million,nine hundred 
ninety nine thousand, 
nine hundred ninety nine 
tears to go 
I got nine million,nine hundred 
ninety nine thousand, 
nine hundred ninety nine 
tears to go 
And then I don't know 
If I'll be over you

I got nine million ,nine hundred 
ninety nine thousand, 
nine hundred ninety nine 
tears to go 
I got nine million,nine hundred 
ninety nine thousand, 
nine hundred ninety nine 
tears to go......
