| The torch I carry is handsome
|
| It’s worth its heartache in ransom
|
| And when that twilight steals
|
| I know how the lady in the harbor feels
|
| When I want rain, I get sunny weather
|
| I’m just as blue as the sky
|
| Since love is gone, can’t get myself together
|
| Guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry
|
| Friends ask me out and I tell them I’m busy
|
| Must get a new alibi
|
| I stay at home and ask myself, «Where is she?»
|
| Guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry
|
| Dry little tear drops, my little tear drops
|
| Hanging on a stream of dreams
|
| Fly little memories, my little memories
|
| Remind her of our crazy schemes
|
| Yes, somebody says, just forget about her
|
| So I gave that treatment a try
|
| And strangely enough I got along without her
|
| Then one day she passed me right by, oh, well
|
| I guess I’ll hang my tears out to dry |
