guess i'll hang my tears out to dry

the torch i carry is handsome

it's worth its heartache in ransom

and when the 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 has gone

can't get myself together

guess i'll hang my tears out to dry

friends ask me out

i tell them i'm busy

i must find a new alibi

i stay at home

and ask myself: who is he?

guess i'll hang my tears out to dry

dry little tear drops

my little tear drops

hanging on a string of dreams

fly little memories

my little memories

remind her of our crazy schemes

somebody says

just forget about her

i gave that treatment a try

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
