Crying Time
Dinah Shore · Other Songs - Dinah Shore
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling Oooh
That it won't be long before it's crying time
Now they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder (fonder)
And that tears are only rain to make love grow
Well my love for you could never grow no stronger (stronger)
If I lived to be a hundred years old
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling. Yeah now
That it won't be long before it's crying time
Now you say you've found someone that you love better (better)
That's the way it's happened every time before
And as sure as the sun comes up tomorrow ('morrow)
Crying time will start when you walk out the door
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me
I can see that far away look in your eyes
I can tell by the way you hold me darling. Alright now
That it won't be long before it's crying time
That it won't be long before it's crying time
