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 is gone can't pull myself together

guess i'll hang my tears out to dry

friends ask me out

i tell them i'm busy

i must get a new alibi

i stay at home and ask myself where is he

guess i'll hang my tears out to dry

dry little teardrops

hanging on a string of dreams

fly little memories

my little memories

remind him of our crazy schemes

somebody said just forget about him

so i gave that treatment a try

strangely enough i got along without him

then one day he passed me right by

oh well i guess i'll hang my tears out to dry
