Cryin' My Heart Out Over You

Cryin' My Heart Out Over You
written by Carl Butler, performed by both Jim Eanes and Carl Butler

Off somewhere the music’s playing soft and low
And another holds the one that I love so
I was blind I could not see, that you meant the world to me
But like a fool I stood and watched you go

(chorus)
Now I’m crying my heart out over you
Those blue eyes now they smile at someone new
Ever since you went away, die a little more each day
Cause I’m crying my heart out over you

Each night I climb the stairs up to my room
It seems I hear you whisper in the gloom
I miss your picture on the wall, and your footsteps in the hall
While I’m crying my heart out over you

(chorus)

performed here by Flatt & Scruggs - it's a little different than the country hit, but closer in feel to the original than the Ricky Skaggs hit
