Many Tears Ago Lyrics - Marty Robbins

Many tears ago you said you loved me 

Oh, how happy was this heart of mine 

Then a dark cloud came from out of nowhere 

And the sun went down, no more to shine 

Many tears ago, I've learned too well, love 

What it means to bear a heavy load 

I found out just what is meant by sorrow 

Many tears ago along life's road 

Many tears ago I built a castle 

I built it very strong and very tall 

Though I thought it had a firm foundation 

Many tears ago I saw it fall 

Many tears ago, was in the springtime 

When you said goodbye and went away 

Oh, how well this achin' heart remembers 

Many, many tears ago today
