Oh once my heart was light and gay and didn't realize

Until you vanished from my side and opened up my eyes

I balanced up the books on you the answer's very clear

The final total comes into exactly nothin' dear

I'm fillin' up a washing tub of tears I shed for you

And dumpin' in my oldest dreams I've got a job to do

I'm washing all my dreams in tears to rid my misery

And hangin' out on the line that you handed me

At night when I lie down to rest instead of coutin' sheep

I count the many lies you told to put myself to sleep

I count the times you cheated to and knowing how you are

I'd like to count them everyone but I can't count that far

I'm fillin' up a washing tub of tears I shed for you

And dumpin' in my oldest dreams I've got a job to do

I'm washing all my dreams in tears to rid my misery

And hangin' out on the line that you handed me

I'll take the brush you used and given me to brush all fear

And brush away my thoughts of you that linger round so near

Put on my walking shoes I got when you gave me the air

Go out and found somebody new someone who really care

I'm fillin' up a washing tub of tears I shed for you

And dumpin' in my oldest dreams I've got a job to do

I'm washing all my dreams in tears to rid my misery

And hangin' out on the line that you handed me
