WITH TEARS IN MY EYES
Paul Howard

With tears in my eyes, dear, I begged you to stay.
You couldn't forgive me, so you went away.
I made a mistake, dear, by tellin' you lies.
Now I lay awake, dear, with tears in my eyes.

No more to be sweetheart, no more to be friend,
Please give me a chance, dear and I'll make amends.
My yesterdays haunt me. My weary heart cries.
I just can't go on, dear, with tears in my eyes.

If you ever need me, oh, please let me know.
Wherever you lead me, I'm willin' to go.
The past is a flower that withers and dies.
I'll wake up tomorrow with tears in my eyes.
