THE SALT IN MY TEARS Martin Briley I never did it No I won't admit it Why should I lie for you anymore You never loved me You pushed and you shoved me I ee the woman I never saw I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted It still hurts but the pain has shifted I'm looking back at the time that drifted by But I won't cry for the wasted years 'Cos you ain't worth the salt in my tears Feeling neglected Used and rejected You need a shoulder to lean upon Maybe you've picked him Found your next victim Don't worry someone will come along I broke the spell that you kept me under I'd had enough of the rain and thunder I lost track of the time and I wonder why But I won't cry for the wasted years 'Cos you ain't worth the salt in my tears I'll sit around and drink a few more beers Until the memory just disappears 'Cos you ain't worth the salt in my tears
