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 shoved me I see the woman I never saw

I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted It still hurts but the pain has shifted I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by But I won't cry for the wasted years 'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

Feeling neglected, used and rejected You need a shoulder to lean upon Baby you picked him, found your next victim Don't worry someone will come along

I broke the spell that you kept me under I 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 'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

I'll sit around and drink a few more beers Until the memory just disappears 'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted It still hurts but the pain has shifted I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by But I won't cry for the wasted years 'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears 'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
