Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out To Dry

Linda Ronstadt · 'round Midnight [1990]

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
